Meet Our Head of School

With over a decade of experience in Early Childhood Education, I’m excited to be part of the Minnesota Montessori team. I’ve served in roles ranging from teacher to Assistant Director and Family Liaison, always with a focus on building strong connections between families, students, and schools. I believe deeply in the power of community and that we are all lifelong learners—children, teachers, and families alike.

At home, I enjoy reading and cooking with my daughter, Violet, and spending time with my husband playing board games or hunting for vintage treasures. Originally from coastal South Carolina, I’ve called Minnesota home since 2016—and yes, I’ll always laugh at a good dad joke!
