I was born and raised in the beautiful small town of Avon, NY. I attended University at Buffalo where I received my Bachelor’s in Speech and Hearing Sciences. I recently completed my Association Montessori International training in Denver, Colorado at the Montessori Institute. In Denver, I was trained by Ms. Judi Orion, who was one of the first ever to complete 0-3 training program in Rome! I have also completed my Master’s in Montessori Education from Loyola University, Maryland. Outside of school I enjoy spending my time with family, friends and the Buffalo Bills. I fell in love with the toddler age group during my fieldwork as I was working towards my undergrad. I was able to witness their language and motor development as well as their capabilities towards caring for themselves and others at such a young age. I have also had a strong passion for bridging the gap between school and home. I feel it is vital for the children that all adults are consistent with their techniques and implementations, from meal times to toilet education; consistency is key with young children.
