My career has been focused on early care and education. I am a lifelong learner because I enjoy learning about new ideas and concepts. I really enjoy working with early educators and people that care so much about children and families. I earned my bachelor's degree from the University of North Dakota and my master's degree at Concordia University St. Paul both in Early Childhood Education.
