****Lilly Turnquist**** CO-PRESIDENT
Hi, I’m Lilly. I have three children: Celine, age 5; Ellinor, age 3; and Henrik, who is just 1.
Being part of the Magnolia School Family is special to me because of the close-knit community and the strong relationships my girls have developed with their instructors. They truly love it there.
Currently, my kids are obsessed with The Lion King and enjoy picking out their own outfits. On weekends, our favorite activities include dance class, swimming, and pizza parties.
In Austin, we love dining at Prelude. Professionally, I’ve been with Kendra Scott's corporate office for nearly 10 years. I’m also a fan of pickleball and Lagree Pilates, which keep me active and engaged.

**Erin Yeschin** CO-PRESIDENT
Hi, I’m Erin and I have one son, Bryant.
We love being a part of The Magnolia School because they truly care about supporting our children academically and socially. They meet our son where he's at and help him bridge the gap between his strengths and challenges, all while boosting his confidence along the way. The community is a testament to just how wonderful the environment is at Magnolia School.
My son is currently obsessed with Legos, Stuart Gibbs Books, and Just Dance!
In Austin we love hiking the greenbelt, paddle boarding, and being out on the Lake. Professionally, I am an SEL Educator and host of a story time podcast for kids.

*Kambria Thomas* SOCIAL MEDIA CHAIR
Hi, I’m Kambria. I have four kids: three boys aged 9, 7, and 5, and a baby girl who is 1 1/2.
Our family truly values the customizability of the curriculum and the positive environment at Magnolia School. It has been a game changer for us!
Lately, my kids are obsessed with Marvel and Pokémon, and our baby girl happily follows her brothers everywhere. It’s a joy to see them all enjoying their interests together.
On weekends, we love swimming and taking advantage of the long weather that allows for plenty of pool time.
In Austin, our favorite restaurants are Red Ash and Uchiko. I’m passionate about reading, music, and attending concerts. Before having children, I worked in Operations at a hedge fund but eventually transitioned to becoming a cosmetologist, which I absolutely love.
