Awards and Accolades
With nearly 20 years of experience in Early Childhood Education, I am very passionate about the impact educators have on our community. I’ve been in a leadership role for almost six years and truly believe that the learning environments and care we provide shape a child’s educational journey. I grew up in Edina and now live in Apple Valley with my husband, two children, and our puppy. We love traveling as a family and playing board games together.
