I am a dreamer. I realized many years ago that the best and most effective way to make
a difference in the world is through children. I am a mother of two whom have inspired
me to finally get in the field that I have always had passion for since I were very young. I
have a bachelor of science in Business Administration/ Business Information Systems,
seven years of experience in childcare, 6 years in management and 2 year as a school
director. My mission is to create a very loving, peaceful, healthy and educationally fun
environment for children of all different backgrounds. I would like to help parents, grow
as well as the children. The first few years of a child's life are the most important years,
developmentally. I believe that all the rights and wrongs we experience throughout our
adulthood are somehow linked to our experiences during the first few years of our lives.
I believe that we dance to the tune that the environment we live in or the circumstances
around us, play. What is special about IQ Academy is that all of us, teachers and staff,
share the same mission. I look forward to the relationship with every single parent and
child that walks through IQ Academy.

As a teacher, I do believe in these words of Forest Witcraft:
“One hundred years from now
It won't matter
What kind of car I drove
What kind of house I lived in
How much money I had in the bank
Nor what my cloths looked like
BUT
The world may be a little better
Because, I was important
In the life of a child.”
