Mollie was homeschooled for most of her early education and holds a B.M. in Piano Performance and an M.A. in Dramatic Productions. An artist and musician, she has worked in education through Kindermusik, a private piano studio, and teaching art classes in community and co-op settings. Having homeschooled her own children for 17 years, Mollie approaches education using eclectic resources that build on the natural curiosity and interests of her students while inspiring and challenging them to grow and learn. In addition to teaching, Mollie continues to study the piano and the cello, and creates mixed media and three dimensional art in her home studio. Mollie and her husband Aaron have four wonderful children — Henry, Jude, Lola, and Dot.
