Elizabeth decided to continue her education and is currently pursuing her doctorate degree in Curriculum and Instruction at Argosy University.

Elizabeth has worked in early childhood education settings for the past six years, working with infants, toddlers, and preschool and even school-age children. Elizabeth has presented at many conferences including the Head Start National Conference in Oxford, England. She has intensive training on the ECERS ratig scale, trained by Dr. Thelma Harms. She enjoys working with children and seeing them accomplish the little things. During the past three years, Elizabeth taught at a local norther California Community College, and enjoyed working with a diverse group of adults.

Elizabeth is a mother to a bright eight-year-old son. Together they do many things outdoors as well as play games and read together, Elizabeth is excited about being part of the First 5 El Dorado team and looks forward to working with providers in El Dorado County helping them gain knowledge and strength in the early childhood education field.
