I graduated from the Mills College (Oakland, CA) Early Childhood Education master's program in May 1986. I taught two, three and four year olds at the Lake School in Oakland for two years.
As an Early Childhood Education Specialist at Boys Town National Research Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska for 12 years I worked with preschoolers who were deaf or hard of hearing for 5 1/2 years and in the Child Life department, educating children of all ages prior to their outpatient surgeries.
I then spent 1 1/2 years as the EHS Coordinator at Child and Family Development Corporation which serves 120 children birth to three. I was responsible for training and support services for 15 EHS classrooms. In July 2002 I joined a new program, Educare Omaha, Inc., a birth to five school serving low income families as a Master Teacher. In March 2020 I transitioned to the position of Infant Toddler Program Specialist within the Educare Omaha organization.
