About The Teacher

I first started teaaching at Villa in 1993 as an assistant (2 years) and as a 
Lead teacher (5 years).  I left Villa in 2000 when I had my first son, 
Trent.  I worked part time at PVUMC preschool for 5 years, and had my second 
son Alec in 2002 while working there.  But I was drawn back into Montessori 
and Villa sending Trent to Villa in 2003 and then I returned to Villa with 
Alec in 2005.  I believe in Montessori, especially at this age, 3-6 years old 
and I consider the Villa community part of my family.  
I have a B.A. degree from the Univ. of AZ, I have a M.Ed. from Loyola College 
in MD. and an AMI certification for Montessori training.
I have been married for over 16years to my wonderful husband Brad.
Thank you for letting me be a part of your child's growth and development.  I 
look forward to a wonderful year.
