About Me

I have had the unbelievably good fortune to be part of the early childhood profession for over thirty years. My experience includes teaching young children from 6 weeks to 12 years as well as being an administrator in a variety of different capacities. 

Over the last 21 years, I have been responsible for assisting in the oversight and management of a multi-site early childhood and school age program.  This has included overall educational programming, all compliance with regulatory agencies, and mentoring for several child care centers and their teams. 

A focus of my career has also been on supporting the professional development of early childhood professionals in many different roles. I present to many private early learning centers in Rhode Island, Massachusetts and Connecticut on a variety of topics, and I have presented at the NAEYC Conference multiple times, as well as state AEYC affiliate statewide conferences, the World Forum Foundation, the Child Care Nutrition Conference and the McCormick Leadership Connections Conference,..  

I hold a Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education and I am a proud member of NAEYC and the Rhode Affiliate, RIAEYC and I serve on many educational sub-committees, I am also a CDA Specialist and a Conscious Discipline enthusiast. .

I would love the opportunity to work with you or your team - contact me so we can begin!
