nurturer, mother, community

I began working in early childhood education 25 years ago as a preschool teacher
in Long Island, New York where I grew up. After receiving my Bachelor’s Degree in
Elementary Education, I moved out to Colorado and began working as a Toddler 2
teacher at Cradles in 2006. A few years later, I took time off to start a family. I have
twin girls as well as a stepdaughter and stepson who all grew up in the Cradle to
Crayons family. I began working at Cradles again in 2016 and then came back full
time in 2021. My family and I live in the Applewood area. I feel privileged to be a
part of cultivating a place of family, inclusion and love for our growing community.
I feel so fortunate to be able to do what I am passionate about with people who
have always been like family to me.
