Executive Director

I've been with Little Sprouts since: February 2006

My educational background is: I have been working in the field for 8 years. I have been a teacher in every age group and have worked as a Team Leader, Assistant Director and Director. Since I love working with all age groups, I prefer to be part of the administration team because it allows me to be involved with every child in the program. I am Director II qualified and Lead Teacher for Infant /Toddler and Preschool. I have a BA from the University of Phoenix in Business and Human Resources. I received my teacher qualifications from Salem State and Middlesex Community College.

Fun facts about me: I have been married for over a year and our family just welcomed a wonderful son named Nicholas. We enjoy traveling, scuba diving and on rainy days we love watching movies and working on our house.
