I have had over 10 years in Early Childhood Education after graduating from Dowling College with a B.A. in Elementary Education. I began as a classroom teacher, working with both Toddlers and Preschool. My extensive background in Retail Management allowed me to combine my work experiences and become a Director. I have been fortunate enough to work for The Learning Experience since 2017. I love being a part of this family. My focus has always been, and will continue to be, to create a safe, nurturing environment for my children, parents and staff.

Nothing matters more to me than the safety and well-being of my kids. As a mom of two I am devoted to the Learning Experience Academy goals of making learning fun, engaging and safe. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to find a worry-free place to leave your child. My own search led me on a mission to create such a place for other moms. A daycare that is nurturing and Purpose-Built from the ground up where a mom can leave confident that their child will be loved and encouraged. My staff and I are dedicated to ensuring each child reaches their full cognitive, physical and social potential.
