Treasurer
I am one of the Lead K-1 teachers here at TRM. I discovered the Montessori method during my first year of college and immediately knew it was for me. I have a passion for instilling a life-long love of learning and fostering independence within the child. I hold a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Studies, AMI Montessori certification, and a MN teaching license from birth to 3rd grade. Before coming to TRM, I worked at another Montessori public charter school in the area as a Lead Children's House teacher. I feel like my overall teaching experience paired with my Montessori training and time at other charter schools will help the TRM Board of Directors reach our mission of providing an authentic Montessori experience to our students.
