Awards and Accolades
I have always wanted to work with young children and now with more than 9 years experience in the field, I enjoy using my skills to ensure I am creating a safe and educational environment for all. I am currently the director of the Champlin location, but I have also had the roles of an assistant director and a toddler teacher. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and my sons. We enjoy gardening, making sourdough, and learning new skills.
