More About Angelica
I graduated from Chabot College in 2008 with an A.A. in Liberal Arts and later earned a certificate in Early Childhood Development. Currently, I am a student at California State University, East Bay, pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Sociology and Psychology.
I am a dedicated mother of two wonderful girls with a passion for cooking, walking, hiking, and Zumba. Listening to R&B oldies is one of my favorite pastimes. Spending quality time outdoors with my daughters and enjoying our Friday movie nights are highlights of my week. My love for reading and lifelong learning drives me to continuously seek knowledge and new experiences.
I am excited about the opportunity to contribute to Little Rockridge School. My background and knowledge in the early childhood education field has prepared me to understand children's social, emotional, and cognitive needs. I am passionate about creating a nurturing, stimulating, and creative environment where children can thrive.
