About Jessica
Affectionately known as “Bug” during her high school and college softball days, Jessica brings enthusiasm, creativity, and a get-your-hands-dirty spirit to every learning experience. She thrives on hands-on projects, embraces the mess, and sees every day outdoors as an adventure.
With a deep appreciation for diverse learning styles, Jessica is patient, flexible, and always ready to pivot to meet each child where they are. She believes nature fosters gratitude, curiosity, and confidence—and finds joy in watching children build boldness as they explore and try new things.
To Jessica, every season is a teacher—not just showing us how to change, but revealing the beauty in transitions.
