Amy is originally from New England and graduated from Boston University with a BA in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Development. While teaching second grade in Seattle, she received her MA in Education. Amy taught for several years in elementary school before deciding to spend some time at home with her three children. Amy returned to the classroom at San Dieguito United Methodist Preschool as a lead teacher for 8 years and has been with JCS Mountain Oaks since 2015. 

When she is not in the classroom she especially enjoys spending time with her family. You could find Amy at various sporting events, reading, hiking, walking, enjoying the beach, and beautiful outdoor weather. Amy is excited to share her love for children and education. She believes strongly in a classroom community that provides a learning environment fostering confidence, independence, and problem-solving, and encouraging children to reach their full academic potential while becoming independent life-long learners.
