Ii is my goal to work collaboratively with teachers, parents, staff, parishioners and the community to continue cultivating a positive, fun, nurturing environment that supports and fosters  growth in all areas of the children’s development..                                                                                                                                                                                                  
I am a certified Early Childhood Director and teacher. In addition, I am certified trainer for the RI Department of Education in the RI Early Learning Standards. As a graduate of the University of Rhode Island, I hold BS Degree in Family & Consumer Sciences Education with a concentration in Early Childhood.
I recently served as the Director for St. David’s Preschool. I retired from the Cranston Public School System in 2014 where I taught Parenting and Early Childhood Education. In addition, I have served as State Director for a youth leadership association, held leadership roles in other youth and professional organizations as well as owned my own retail business.
