Born and raised in California, Easther grew up as a pastor’s kid, witnessing her father plant and nurture a church and its ministries.
Through this, she learned about God’s compassionate and loving nature, understanding the importance of loving and cherishing children as Jesus taught.
With a passion for both music and teaching, Easther pursued a bachelor’s degree in Piano Performance and performed in a trio. However, their calling extended beyond the stage. She transitioned into administrative roles at the Music Departments of SFSU and SJSU, and also contributed to the Opera San Jose Education Department and Outreach, making a lasting impact in the arts community.
Despite a successful music career, Easther always felt drawn to working with children. Embracing this calling, she became a full-time 3rd grade teacher, where she combined creativity, faith, and a deep love for children. Easther believes that the fruit of the Spirit is a blessing from God and is committed to teaching these foundational skills to guide students in their spiritual and academic growth.
At the heart of Easther's teaching philosophy is building meaningful relationships, ensuring that both students and parents feel heard and valued. In her personal life, Easther enjoys life with a loving husband and their beautiful, energetic daughter. Together, they love spending time outdoors, playing, and going on adventures.
