I’m an Arizona native and grew up in Scottsdale, Arizona. I have 12 children and 6 grandsons. My oldest Alexander is 31 years old, Kole is 29, Brooke is 27, Jake is 24, Amber is 21, Logan is 18, Scott is 16, Isabel is 15, Gwendolyn is 13, Lance is 11, Emmett is 9 and Hazel Rose is 7. I have always loved being around children and am so blessed to have such a big family!
I received my degree in Accounting but later made the decision to change career paths when my children were very young in order to be home with them. I ran a preschool from my home for almost five years then in 2008 my sister in law approached me with the idea to open a facility. I was so thrilled with the idea to offer this unique accelerated program that I jumped on board despite the fact that at the time I lived in Prescott. I commuted for three years before moving back to the valley. I have been so fortunate to have taught our PreK, Kindergarten & Grade School classes over the years. Developing the curriculum for such young minds is my passion! My favorite place to be is with the students and teaching them new things everyday. I know how important these early years are and I feel so fortunate to be able to own schools that provides love, guidance and an amazing start to children’s educational journey.
My goal this year is to encourage students’ academic and social growth while providing a safe and loving environment. Watching children learn is very rewarding and I am looking forward to a wonderful, productive year.
