I graduated from the University of Tennessee in 2019 with a bachelor’s degree in Geography, concentrating in People and the Environment. My Montessori journey began while I was in college, when I worked at another Montessori school and discovered a passion for this approach to education. I joined Little River Montessori in 2022 and have loved being part of such a joyous and supportive community.
My favorite part of the Montessori method is the freedom and independence children have to explore their curiosities and follow their own interests. Watching children develop confidence, responsibility, and a genuine love of learning is incredibly rewarding.
Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my wonderful husband and our four amazing children.
