Working with young children and helping them learn is something that Natalie is very passionate about. In high school, she worked as camp counselor each summer and found that she loved working with children so much that she wanted to pursue a career in teaching as an adult. Natalie graduated from North Park University with a BA in elementary education and a minor in fine art. She now teaches kindergarten full-time and also leads some after school classes with Inspire Girls Academy. Prior to teaching kindergarten, she taught preschool for 2 years.

Natalie will be teaching at our Bucktown Location.

What INSPIRES me? Seeing young girls embrace what makes them unique and navigate their surroundings with confidence, creativity, and joy!
