Center Director
Favorite TLE® Character:
Miss Chievous
Ms. Deena has been our Center Director since January 2019. She began her career with children when she was 18 years old as a Teacher's Assistant. She decided she wanted to help children in a different way and attended Nursing School. In 2000, she graduated with a degree in Nursing and worked as a Pediatric Nurse for 12 years taking care of terminally ill children. She missed teaching and as much as she loved being a nurse she wanted to return back to her roots and left nursing to go back to Early Childhood Education. She worked her way up the ladder from Lead Teacher to Center Director. Ms. Deena takes pride in knowing she is helping shape the future. Her passion shows in everything she does!
