Here's A Little About Me
I'm an elementary (1st - 6th grade) credentialed Montessori teacher with 11 years of teaching experience, for a total of 25 years of teaching experience.
I love seeing children's eyes light up when they're experiencing hands-on activities.
After a college study abroad studying wildlife management in Kenya, I worked as a wildlife biologist in Colorado, New York and Cameroon.
Yes, my dream was to be the next Jane Goodall!
I have a labradoodle and cat
As an instructional guide, field consultant and practicum guide, I help adult learners earn their Montessori teaching credentials.
I love to read!
I'm state credentialed to teach middle school and high school biology.
Once upon a time, I was classroom teacher struggling with balancing time prep, family and friends.
Now, I help YOU overcome the overwhelm!
I believe science and nature can bring us true happiness and peace.
When I was young, I wanted to be a veterinarian.
My two elementary-aged children inspired me to create fun science.
