BIOGRAPHY

Rachel grew up down the road from Hudson Montessori School in Twinsburg, Ohio. Rachel is a proud alumna of HMS, having begun her journey in Children’s House and continuing through sixth level. Even as a student, she knew she would one day return to teach in the community that helped shape her. Over the years, Rachel has served as both a Children’s House and Young Children’s Community teacher, nurturing a deep passion for early childhood education. In addition to continuing in the YCC classroom, she is now thrilled to step into the role of Director of Early Childhood Education at HMS, where she will support students, families, and educators in a new and meaningful way.

Outside the classroom, Rachel enjoys spending quality time with her family, friends and two cats Furnando and Sofie, and enthusiastically cheers on the local hockey team—Go Monsters! She is excited and honored to continue her journey at HMS, working alongside the children, families, and colleagues who make this community so special.
