Abby Wojcik

Welcome! My name is Abby. I'm a freelance writer and the Admissions and Marketing Coordinator at Chesterfield Montessori School. I have a bachelor of arts in English and creative writing with a minor in women and gender studies from Canisius University. I've also completed the internationally-recognized AMI Certificate for Montessori Core Principles where I studied Montessori theory and philosophy across human development stages.

I'm passionate about journalism, poetry, vinyl music, art and all things local and sustainable. Usually, I can be found playing softball or biking to a coffee shop for an iced vanilla latte!
