Let’s launch their lifelong love of learning together. Contact us to visit Celebree School of Ellicott City!
I have been with Celebree Schools since July of 2012. I have over 25 years of experience in early childhood education with 13 of those years being at Celebree. My journey began with a love for watching children learn, grow, and discover the world around them. That same passion has grown to include supporting and mentoring others in their careers in Early Childhood Education.
I chose to join Celebree after consistently hearing great things about its culture and commitment to quality education and it has been one of the best decisions of my professional life. I started as an assistant director, moved into a school director role and now I am a District Director.
In my current role, my focus is to support our schools in growing people big and small. I’m passionate about coaching the teams, sharing my knowledge, and creating strong, supportive environments where both staff and children can reach their fullest potential.
I have worked in childcare for 18 years. My journey with Celebree School began in 2017, when I started as an aide, then became a Teacher, an Assistant School Director, and now serve as School Director.
My passion for early childhood education is inspired by the “ah-ha” moments in the classroom — those special times when a child’s face lights up with understanding and excitement. Seeing that spark of discovery reminds me why this work is so meaningful.
I chose to join Celebree School because I believe in their commitment to growing big and small. After spending most of my ECE career as a Teacher, my goal now is to inspire my team to create nurturing, engaging environments where both children and educators can continue to grow and thrive.
I have been an early childhood educator for the past 11 years and hold a Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education. Before joining Celebree School, I taught kindergarten in several area independent schools, where I developed a deep appreciation for how young children learn and grow.
My passion for early childhood education comes from the wonder children bring to everyday life — how they turn small discoveries into magical moments. I’m inspired daily by their curiosity, joy, and ability to find meaning in the simple things we often take for granted.
I chose to join Celebree School because of the school’s dedication to providing exceptional early childhood care and education for children from infancy through school age. In my current role as Assistant Director, my focus is on coaching and supporting teachers, as well as building meaningful relationships with current and prospective families.
Outside of Celebree School, I love exploring new ice cream shops with my wife and our two dogs.
