As a former Palomar College student, it is a joy and privilege to teach within the Child Development department and be apart of this amazing campus community. I’ve been an instructor here since 2012, and I also teach at several other colleges and universities.

Prior to teach at the college level, I taught typically-developing preschoolers, as well as those with special needs. I also worked as a tutor in human development and as a student improvement program coordinator at an elementary school in Escondido. In addition to this, I spent five years as a private childcare provider for a military family with three young children. I am passionate about working with students, educators and families. I am so thankful that I have had the opportunity to do this in a variety of capacities.

Outside of the classroom, I enjoy leading online and community trainings through my website, https://www.theprofmom.com/ . I also recently authored my first book, Growing Pains: A Parent’s Guide to Child Development, which will be available November 2019.

In 2016, my husband and I welcomed our daughter, Emery, and then had our son, JT, just 14 months later! As I transitioned into the parent role, I moved into teaching primarily online, allowing me to continue in a job that I love. In my free time, I enjoy riding bikes with my family, listening to audiobooks, and taking dance classes.
