Ari is a dedicated stay-at-home mom to her energetic 2-year-old son. Before embracing motherhood, she built a fulfilling career as a preschool teacher in New Hampshire, California, and Washington. 

Ari’s teaching philosophy centers around the belief that every child is an artist, and she consistently integrated art into her classroom to inspire creativity and self-expression.

In 2019, Ari earned her Bachelor's degree in Youth Development and Education, with a minor in Adventure Education, from Plymouth State University. This unique combination reflects her passion for nurturing young minds through both creative and experiential learning. 

Outside of teaching and parenting, Ari enjoys spending quality time with her family—her husband, son, and their beloved dog. She also loves reading, exploring the outdoors, and socializing with friends.
