I am so happy to be starting my Sixth year at Pixie Preschool with all of you! I can’t tell you how rewarding it is to come to work each day with an amazing group of women who are extremely dedicated to teaching young children. Before Pixie, I was the education director of a Franchised Early Childhood Center for 14 years and for two years I was an Executive Director at a corporate center. I live in Freehold with my husband and 3 children ; 14 year old twin girls Kacie & Riley and my 11 year old son Evan and our cat Jax. I love spending time with my family at the beach and we love going to amusement parks! I look forward to many years ahead at Pixie. I am honored for the opportunity to be a part of your children’s first educational experience.
