With diverse backgrounds, Cathie and Alex bring a wealth of experience and a shared commitment to early childhood education. With over 15 years of hands-on teaching experience, Cathie has dedicated her career to inspiring young minds through art, Spanish, and French. She has worked with children ages 2 to 15, including those from underprivileged communities, using art-based programs to enhance self-confidence, develop creativity and self-expression, and learn new languages. In Atlanta, she has taught at the Atlanta International School and the Atlanta Speech School.
Alex, on the other hand, comes from a background in management consulting and entrepreneurship. He spent 15 years in strategy leadership roles at The Coca-Cola Company, working across multiple regions, including Atlanta. The couple credits much of their personal and professional success to the power of education,especially in its formative stages. This belief fuels their excitement about opening Celebree School of Smyrna, where their mission is to “Protect, Nurture, and Educate” every child who walks through the door.
In 2019, the family moved to Atlanta as part of an international assignment with The Coca-Cola Company. They now reside in the area with their two daughters, Emilia (20) and Sofia (16), along with their beloved dogs. Both Cathie and Alex grew up in Mexico City. Cathie earned her bachelor’s degree in graphic design from UNUM University, while Alex holds both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in electrical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and an MBA from Collège des Ingénieurs in Paris.
At Celebree School of Smyrna, Alex will oversee all aspects of school operations, while Cathie will lead art and creativity programs and teach Spanish and French. We can’t wait to welcome you to Celebree School of Smyrna! We look forward to sharing this exciting journey with you!
