Kelly Campion

Farnaz Dar
Certified Facilitator
Based in Lansdale, Pennsylvania since 2004, Farnaz Dar is a former teacher with a Master’s degree in Literacy Education from Baruch College and Queens College CUNY, whose innate capacity for organization and love of learning shaped both her teaching career and entrepreneurial journey. Inspired by her trailblazing mother who immigrated to America and built her own business, Farnaz has carried forward the educator mindset in everything she does—from the classroom to founding multiple businesses. As she describes herself, she’s a “former teacher, but really always a teacher,” bringing educational principles of structure, patience, and empowerment into her work as a serial entrepreneur.
As a mother of four sons, Farnaz has always been passionate about the role of parenting in raising children that will soon be the leaders of our communities. The values and mission of The Centers of Excellence is in perfect alignment with that. The idea of transforming Early Childhood Education by offering directors, teachers, and families relevant, interactive, and meaningful training has lit a spark and new purpose for Farnaz.
She believes in living by example! Farnaz surrounds herself with people who are lifelong learners, tries new and scary things (at least once), and keeps faith and optimism at the core of everything she does.
