Meet Our Staff

Director

I’m a native of Southern Wake County, growing up in Holly Springs & Fuquay-Varina. From an early age I have always wanted to make an impact in the lives of young children. I enjoy watching children become confident in their abilities, and in teaching them new information that will help create and foster a love for learning.  I have served in many roles in the Preschool setting – floater/school age teacher while in college, a two’s teacher for 8 years, and an Infant and Pre-K Teacher, as well as 10 years in a management role. My fiancé and I are a blended family with two boys who attend elementary school in Holly Springs.  As a family we enjoy all things sports related and anything outdoors. As an Early Childhood Educator, my goal is to provide a safe, warm, nurturing environment where each child can develop the fundamentals of life. My motto is that all children should be hugged first, and then taught.

Assistant Director

I am excited to be part of the leadership team at Holly Springs Academy! I have my Bachelor's Degree in Human Services with a concentration in Developmental Disabilities from Clarion University of Pennsylvania. I have spent most of my adult life working with preschool age children and children with special needs. I am from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and moved to Raleigh, NC in 2018. Some of my favorite things are visiting the beach and spending time with my family. I look forward to getting to know each and every one of you!
