Meet Our Director
Hello! I’m Keri, the Executive Director at Riverpoint. I’ve lived in Ozaukee County, Wisconsin, nearly my entire life, and my passion for education started early—thanks to my mom, an inspiring elementary school teacher.
I earned my BA in Elementary Education with a minor in Science from Concordia University–Wisconsin and have been in early childhood education since 1990. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of serving as a teacher, director, and administrator. I joined The Nurturing Nook family in 2017.
I truly believe educators have the privilege of shaping young minds and making a lasting difference. Outside of work, I love spending time with my husband, our two children, five grandchildren (four of whom have attended The Nurturing Nook!), and our Old English Bulldog, Zoey.
