About me:

When not at NESM, I enjoy spending time with my Toddler. I also enjoy skiing, hiking and reading. Developed a plan to open a Montessori school while observing children in a classroom environment in 1994. My lifelong passion began. I wish all children the right to a Montessori experience. These are the most crucial years in all of one's life. Especially those from Birth to Six, the personality has been nearly completely formed by this time. Montessori offers more than an education, it offers a lifelong passion for learning!
