  • Anna is a peacekeeper, a giver, and a lover of life. Children have been her focus since she was a child herself. Starting in the field of Early Childhood Education, Waldorf Anthroposophy, and "Consciousness Based Education", she grew into the creativity of being an entrepreneur and CEO as the founder of a medical company. With her patience, forward thinking, and deep love of humanity, she believes strongly in our American Dream. It is proven within our history, we can become and obtain any dream we seek. Through her son's demonstration and love of his flag, it opened her eyes to the need to rebirth our love of being an American, and standing beside each other in UNITY. For we are all one sacred family and because you can stand proud to be an American, you can also love and support the good of the whole world.
