Elizabeth is a Chicago native who was a Montessori child herself. She has had the opportunity to explore and live in many diverse settings from Chicago to the rocky mountains of Colorado; however, she is happy to now call Leelanau her home. Elizabeth’s background is heavy in the human services field and includes years of working at a domestic violence shelter and advocating for the survivors living there. Elizabeth believes strongly that each individual is unique and should be treated so. That is one of the reasons she loves the Montessori philosophy so much. Elizabeth and her partner Matthew have two children. Filomena and Era Mae who both attend Leelanau Montessori! When they aren't busy building their own company they like to spend time gardening, cooking, going to the beach, and playing with their animals.
