Alberto is highly committed to educating and developing strong relationships with the Vida community by finding connections with students and parents alike. Alberto holds his certification in Early Childhood Education from West Valley College.
When he is not teaching, he enjoys reading books of all kinds, but especially those written by Latinx authors. He loves cooking and baking vegan meals and treats, and beyond educating, owns a Vegan Cake Business called “Zarto.” Alberto loves being outdoors in nature and finds great joy in being able to teach under our beautiful Sycamore Trees every day.
Alberto leads his classes with compassion and patience and aims to have students explore new cultures, art styles, and mediums while expressing their creativity through language and art.
Vida is led by experienced educators. In title and in practice.
Our founders bring decades of combined experience in classrooms, school leadership, and educational design. This foundation shapes everything we do, from how learning is structured to how children are supported day to day.
Our educators are experienced, thoughtful, and deeply committed to their work.
Each brings a unique background in education, the arts, psychology, or outdoor learning, but they share a common approach: seeing children as individuals, supporting their growth with care, and creating environments where learning feels meaningful and alive.
At Vida, educators are not only teachers. They are guides, observers, and collaborators in each child’s development.
Vida Specialists are committed to educating the whole child. Each of these educators guides our students to find new talents, see the world through new perspectives, and find creative ways to express themselves.
