Montessori Guide


I graduated from the Montessori Institute of San Diego, where I completed my Montessori A to I program. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and have a deep passion for early childhood education. Working in Montessori schools has been incredibly rewarding for me; I love watching children work independently and guiding them in an environment that balances freedom with structure.


I was born in the Philippines and moved to the U.S. in 2003. After living in San Diego for nearly a decade, my family and I relocated to the Seattle area in 2012. In my free time, I love to cook, dance a little, and, of course, enjoy the delicious meals I create!
