     Ingrid Anderson, Ed.D.

Ingrid has spent the past 25 years reflecting on her practice in early childhood education.  From the classroom to the policy table, Ingrid came to realize that early childhood educators' voices are often left out of vital conversations.  It became Ingrid's lifework to support spaces for early childhood educators to share their stories
