I am an educator at heart, leader, and a BSO Inspector – passionate about enabling young children discover the joy of learning. For over 15 years at Avenor, I have combined leadership with hands-on teaching to create nurturing, curiosity-rich classrooms.

I graduated in Psychology and Educational Sciences from the University of Bucharest, specialising in Primary and Nursery School Pedagogy, and achieved my teaching degree (Definitivat) in 2013. I began my journey at Avenor in 2007 as a teacher, moving into age-range coordination in 2011. In 2016 – 2017, I became Educational Coordinator for the entire Nursery, focusing on building a creative and collaborative learning community across Nursery, Reception, and Year 1.

In 2023, I completed the Level 2 School Inspector training course, and in January 2025, I became a BSO Inspector – a role that embodies my commitment to upholding high standards in education while supporting the holistic development of every child.

I have enriched my practice through numerous professional learning programmes, including the Concept-Based Inquiry course, EYFS Teaching Diploma, Leading Learning from the Middle, Reggio-Inspired Practice, Montessori Approaches, Meaningful Maths, and more. I also participated in the OECD Schools+ Network project, collaborating with schools worldwide to enhance Cognitive Engagement in the classroom.

Working with children has taught me the importance of trust, listening, and learning together. I strongly believe that strong, transparent partnerships with parents are essential – seeing them as co-creators in their child’s educational journey.

Looking ahead, I am excited to continue leading our talented educational teams across both Cașin and Greenfield Nurseries, while still enjoying what I love most: teaching. My mission is to inspire curiosity, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning in every child.
