I have a lifelong passion for working with children that began in my own family.

Their dedication to providing safe, nurturing, and enriching environments inspired my commitment to early childhood care and education. In addition to my childcare background, I have experience working with school-age children in the Army Child and Youth Services (CYS) program. In this role, I supported the growth and well-being of military-connected children by providing quality care, supervising daily activities, encouraging learning through play, and fostering an inclusive, supportive environment that met the unique needs of military families.
