My name is Maria. I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and moved to Bethesda 10 years ago.

I have a degree in marketing and worked in the field with large international companies. After putting my career on hold to move to America and make a new life with my family, I decided to follow my passion for early childhood education.

In my classroom, I make sure every child feels welcomed, safe, valued and supported. I’m committed to providing a nurturing and stimulating learning environment.

In my spare time I love to travel, listen to music, and spend time with my family and friends.

I’m super excited to be part of All Saints Preschool!
