"What Inspires You?"

Courtney has always been inspired by children. She created a career based on her fascination with typical and atypical development in young children. Working with children has always provided her with a feeling of satisfaction and a purpose. The inspiration has only grown since having two children of her own. Courtney continues to draw inspiration and strength from both her children at home and the children she works with every day.
