Hi! I’m the proud mother of two amazing children, Florence (7) and Enzo (2), who keep me on my toes in the best way possible. Our family is all about adventures. From camping, to boogie boarding, hiking local trails, family mountain bike rides, we thrive on staying active and connected to nature. Growing up in Idaho, I spent winters snowboarding and summers on the lake, which shaped my love for the outdoors. These days, I’m learning new skills, like surfing—although I’ll admit I’m still working on that one! Florence is excited to try her hand at lacrosse this year, and little Enzo, who’s just 2, already has his own mountain bike! Watching my kids grow and keeping up with their boundless energy has been one of the most rewarding parts of motherhood.

With the unwavering support of my husband, Steven, I’ve had the privilege of being a stay-at-home mom. This role has given me the incredible opportunity to dive deep into early childhood education. Since Florence was a baby, I’ve been inspired by the teachings of Magda Gerber and Janet Lansbury, as well as the Waldorf model of early education. These philosophies have profoundly shaped the way I approach parenting. I’ve learned the importance of meeting children at their developmental level and speaking to them in a respectful way that fosters trust. Creating a safe environment for unselfconscious and imaginative play has become a cornerstone of our family life. I’m passionate about the power of open-ended, child-led play to build confidence and strengthen the bond between caregiver and child during these crucial early years.
