I am from Louisville and graduated from the University of Kentucky with a business degree. Before I joined Highland Pres, I worked as a paralegal and in trust and investments at various local banks. I began substitute teaching and working extended play in 2013 before becoming a morning teacher in 2018.
I love how children are nurtured and respected at Highland Pres. It is much more than just caring for and feeding children. The philosophy that each child here is honored and valued and treated like the individuals they are really resonates with me.
As an infant room teacher, one of the most important jobs I have is to ensure your baby feels safe, secure and cared for. We often say “we build brains in the infant room” since we know that babies’ brain development is directly influenced by the relationship with their caregivers and teachers. The nurturing environment and meaningful connections we provide are the building blocks for the physical and cognitive development as well as the emotional and social well being of your babies. Each day is full of wonder for them and for us as teachers.
My husband John and I are members of Highland Pres Church and have three children (high school, college and graduate school), two of whom attended school here. In my spare time, I love to read, do Crossfit and cook.
