Owner, teacher of Learning Bear Preschool in Portland, Oregon, and Celebrations Preschool and Childcare in Tacoma, Washington for 19 years.
I love to set up a learning based environment where children can actively explore their world in many diverse ways. It's a joy to watch and guide as they discover and learn together in small interactive groups as well as independently. My teaching style is fun, colorful, active and filled with love!

I have a Bachelor's degree in Religious Education, and I continue to take classes for my own fun and growth. In the recent years I have studied Photoshop graphics, and they have contributed so much to my teaching!
