Jess joined The Guild after teaching second grade at Pittsfield Elementary. Although she graduated with a Bachelor’s in Marketing from the University of New Hampshire, Jess discovered her true passion for working with children when she began teaching in Early Education. This led her to return to UNH to complete her Master’s in Education, where she furthered her teaching skills. At The Guild, Jess is dedicated to building strong connections with her students and creating a warm, welcoming classroom that feels like a second home. She finds joy in watching her students grow, develop new skills, and gain confidence in their abilities. Jess is particularly excited to work with a class of “littles” and is eager to support them as they explore, learn, and thrive throughout the year. After work, Jess enjoys unwinding by spending time with friends, diving into a good book, and staying active through various outdoor activities like hiking and skiing.
