About the Instructor

As an extensively trained and certified professional instructor, I serve as a mentor who guides your children through their work while also providing direction, support and encouragement. I create an at-home study plan in addition to monitoring classroom assignments, and I emphasize the importance of accurately completing each assignment within a designated time frame. This has helped many of my students increase self-confidence, thus becoming more self-reliant. Like all Kumon Instructors, I have a true passion for education and an earnest desire to help children succeed.

I have been a Kumon Instructor since 2017.  Prior to opening my Kumon Center, I was a stay at home mom.  I have a BA in International Relations from the University of Minnesota. I grew up in Woodbury and graduated from Woodbury High School. In my spare time I enjoy walking/biking in the park, reading, cooking, listening to music, and traveling.

I was a Kumon parent and saw the tremendous benefit Kumon had on my son's academic achievements. He enrolled at 3 years old and Kumon helped early on with his confidence and understanding that learning can be fun!  I want to help other students benefit from Kumon the way my son has.

I love being a Kumon Instructor because it allows me to help children study above their grade level. I strive to understand each child's individual needs and guide them to achieve their full potential. My goal is to help your child build a strong foundation that will help them succeed in high school, and prepare them well for college.
