    CO-FOUNDER & OPERATIONS MANAGER

    Abby's love for tiny humans and big ideas blossomed way back when she was just a kid herself (think 10 years old, wrangling a gaggle of cousins during family reunions). Since then, she's been on a mission to make learning as fun as a pillow fort on a rainy day. After years of honing her childcare superpowers, Abby teamed up with Icah to create LHBC, a place where laughter echoes louder than naptime snores. When she's not concocting the most awesome art projects or leading sing-alongs that'll make your ears wiggle, Abby's the wizard behind the curtain, making sure everything runs smoother than a slide made of ice cream.
