Miss Brianna is a calm yet energetic early childhood educator. Her passion for child care began back in 2012 when volunteering at a Bay Area children’s summer camp.
Before joining Learning Pathways she had various nanny gigs but connected with one wonderful family for whom she nannied for five consecutive years. In between her caretaking positions, she received an associates degree in psychology, sociology, and liberal arts and behavioral science at West Valley College. During her education at West Valley College, she was an active member of the Alpha Gamma Sigma Honors Society where she volunteered as the vice president of the club. After transferring to San Jose State University, Miss Brianna graduated with a bachelor of arts in psychology and a minor in business administration. Throughout college she has participated in volunteer programs and worked as a restaurant server for ten years.
After graduating San Jose State University, Brianna became an ABA Therapist (Applied Behavioral Analysis Registered Behavioral Technician) working for two years with children on the autism spectrum. The one on one time with her clients as well as the integration of social skills within the pre-K classroom was a major turning point in her journey to becoming a preschool teacher. The genuine connection and behavioral improvements seen in her ABA clients was a beautiful and motivating experience for Miss Brianna. Her patient, kind loving nature is what has led her to teaching at Learning Pathways. She is forever grateful to have the opportunity to lead the youth at such an exceptional early childhood school, and we are equally grateful that Brianna decided to join our Learning Pathways family. In her free time she enjoys going to the gym, spending time with family and friends, and playing with her three pet cats and pet bunny.
