I have worked at Kiddies Korner Preschool for the past 30 years and was a parent at the preschool for three years, one prior to becoming the Early Childhood Educator and two while my youngest daughter was at Kiddies Korner and I was her teacher.

Children have always been my passion and during my years of working with them, I realize why I enjoy my job so much. Every day is different and the wonder and enthusiasm that I see in them, makes my work so worthwhile. I continue to enjoy working with parents and I believe that, together, we can make a difference in the future of our children. Parents learn from me as well as from each other and I learn a great deal from them so everyone wins.

I have had the pleasure of teaching several children of students who I taught when they were three or four and have also taught two of my own grandchildren so Kiddies Korner truly is a family affair.

On a personal note, I have been married to Kelly for 37 years and have three grown daughters and seven grandchildren, ranging in age from 13 to 2.We are a very close family who spend a lot of time together and enjoying spending time at our place at Black Mountain Ranch in Washington State.

I hope that everyone who chooses Kiddies Korner as the preschool where they want to bring their children, will enjoy the community spirit and support that is so evident within the group.
