 Hello there!

I’ve been lucky to be part of the MiVillage family since the very beginning. Each morning, I get to spend time teaching preschoolers — and one of my favorite parts of the job is working with children of all different ages. Every day brings something new, and that variety makes my work exciting and meaningful.

I started teaching preschool back in 2012 and joined MiVillage in 2018. It’s an honor to play a role in these early years, helping little ones learn, grow, and discover the world around them.

Outside the classroom, I’m mom to three amazing kids — Lily, Nate, and Zoe — who inspire me daily. Before becoming a teacher, I was very involved in children’s sports, coaching skating, hockey, soccer, and even karate. Those experiences gave me a unique perspective on how kids learn, build confidence, and work together.

I studied Political Science with a minor in Psychology at the University of Rochester, and while that path might look different from early childhood education, it gave me tools I still use every day when working with children and families.

In my free time, I love sharing my passion for music by singing in my church choir. Most of all, I enjoy creating a space where kids can feel safe, have fun, try new things, and know they belong. Being part of that journey is one of my greatest joys.
