Hi everyone! I have been with TLE since 2020. Upon opening the Rock Hill, SC location I have opened 4 other centers in NC. I have been in childcare for 21 years from teaching each age-group to being a Center Director. I truly love what I do!!! I have my Degree in Early Childhood and I am completing my Degree in Business Administration. My husband and I have been married since 2014 and have one beautiful daughter and one handsome son. My favorite TLE Character is Two Plus Toucan because my Math teacher Mr. Rivers had the greatest adventures in discovering math! I look forward to seeing you at TLE Rock Hill :-)
