Let’s launch their lifelong love of learning together. Contact us to visit Celebree School of National Landing!
Kate and Brian Mulcahy are the Owner-Operators of Celebree School of National Landing and Celebree School of Tysons-Jones Branch. Kate grew up in Florida and moved to the Washington, DC area after graduating from law school in 1996, and Brian was born and raised in Northern Virginia. Kate and Brian met in 2017 and married in 2018, creating a blended family with their three boys. The Mulcahy family resides in McLean, Virginia, just a few miles from both of their Celebree Schools.
Kate and Brian are actively involved in all operations of their Celebree Schools and use the skills gained during their careers to serve the families who live and work in their local community. Kate practiced corporate law for 18 years and Brian was a senior contracting officer with the federal government for 30 years, before they decided to take on the challenge of opening Celebree School of Tysons-Jones Branch. After being open for less than two years, Celebree School of Tysons-Jones Branch has developed a stellar reputation due to the Mulcahys commitment to their management team and teachers. Kate and Brian are very excited to bring this same experience to the families of National Landing.
