Her family moved to the area seven years ago, and Futuro Verde was a significant factor in their decision, as its philosophy and mission align with her values for her children. Despite the challenges the school has faced in recent years, Heather’s dedication and admiration for the school and its families have remained strong. With the school entering a new chapter with new administration, teachers, and challenges, Heather is interested in joining the Board of Directors to help navigate this path. She holds a Master’s degree in Clinical Psychology and began her career as an early childhood therapist. She later transitioned into research, focusing on education, child development, and mental health, and currently works as a Senior Research Consultant.
