Claire was born in England and moved to the USA in 1999. She moved to Colorado Springs in 2007 and again in 2011. She has two grown-up children who live here.

Claire has worked with children for almost 27 years, mostly in schools and before-and-after-school programs. Claire started at New Summit Charter Academy in Prodigy when the school first opened and then joined the school staff as a substitute Teacher Assistant in various grades in elementary school-level classrooms.

Claire still works in the Before-and-After-School Program and is the 2nd-grade Teacher's Assistant for the 2024-2025 school year.

She is very excited to get to know new students and her returning students from last year when she was the 1st-grade Teacher's Assistant.
