Education: I have a Bachelor’s degree in Child Psychology from the University of Minnesota.

Child Care Experience: I have worked in child care since 1992, and the majority of that time has been spent with Infants. I started at HNCCCC in 2001 as an Infant Teacher. I worked as the Assistant Director for about three years, but I missed the children too much so I went back to being the Infant Teacher.

Personal History: I grew up in North Minneapolis and graduated from Henry High School. I come from a large family – six brothers and two sisters, 19 nieces and nephews, and several great-nieces and nephews. I live in Maple Grove.

Hobbies: My hobbies include reading, Sodoku, and crossword puzzles, watching Gopher hockey, and spending time with family and friends.

Why I Like Working at HNCCCC: I like working at HNCCCC because I like helping nurture new individuals and watching their unique personalities develop.
