I joined the Kidango team in 2022 as a family advocate for the Head Start department. In 2023 I became a center director for one of our preschool centers, and in February of 2025 I joined the regional director team. No matter the role I may hold, being an educator will always be my greatest pride.

I started my career as a toddler teacher in 2016, and have since worked with children ages one through six. Discovering new ways to support children’s learning and elevating the early education field by providing high-quality care for all children continue to be my focus in this role. As a child who moved to this country at the age of seven-years-old, I have experienced the great things a strong education system can help a family accomplish. It is a pleasure to offer families, children, and staff that same support in reaching their fullest potential.
