“You can’t get so hung up on where you’d rather be that you forget to make the most of where you are.”

How did you discover Montessori? My best friend works at the Montessori school in Virginia, and she thought I would appreciate learning about the Montessori method.

Why do you love being a Montessori teacher? I love watching the students as they develop their interests and start to understand a new concept.

What about WSM attracted you to the school? Once I visited the school while planning my move to North Carolina, I knew quickly that WSM is where I wanted to work.
