– Food Handler Certified

My roll at Authentic Montessori Academy is to provide delicious, nutritious meals and snacks as well as to provide support in the classrooms. I have a five year old son, a couple of nieces, a nephew and a godchild. I love being a mother a godmother and an Aunt! I have always had a way with children and love being surrounded by them. After all, my mother did have a childcare program in our home from the time that I was a baby. I have two siblings, an older brother and a sister, Mrs. Buzzell, whom is also on the AMA team.
I went to Durham college for ECE but unfortunately had to withdraw before completing the program due to the pregnancy with my son. When my son turned one I started working at a retirement home serving residents over the dinner hour. I switched positions within the company to work as a prep cook where I was later trained as a cook. This position suited me at the time because I was able to be with my son during most of his day. I am now in my fourth year of cooking for large groups.
