Hello! I’m Ann.

I’m wife to Matt and we live near beautiful Lake Michigan with our four children.

After teaching in an elementary classroom for several years, I have spent well over a decade becoming a veteran homeschool mom.

In 2016, I founded Four Square Community – a Charlotte Mason-inspired homeschool co-op that has grown to serve over 100 classes to over 750 local students. Four Square offers academic and enrichment classes for students in preschool through high school. 

Beginning in 2019, Matt joined me in leading and serving the growing Four Square Community. He brings twenty years of traditional classroom experience ranging from preschool through university. Together we authored, The Book of Centuries: A Personal Timeline of History. 

Without Doors is a unique Charlotte Mason curriculum I created that is inspired by the successful lessons at Four Square Community. Using Without Doors has revitalized our homeschool and I hope it does the same for yours. I am passionate about sparking JOY in home education, one family at a time. 

My faith is the foundation of Four Square and Without Doors. I’m excited to present Without Doors: Life of Jesus, a unique Charlotte Mason Bible Study that highlights the heart of Jesus. Be blessed to dwell in the Word of God.

I am grateful for God’s goodness and faithfulness and give Him all the glory!
