Kristen Braman, joined the JCA in the summer of 2025 as a classroom assistant, was hired as a full-time safekeeper for the 2025-26 school year, and now serves as the Early Childhood Education Office Administrator for our Michele Block Gan Yeladim Preschool & Kindergarten.

In addition to her experience working in exceptional student education (ESE) programs in Jacksonville, Kristen holds an ESE paraprofessional certification. As her passion for working with children continues to flourish in our classrooms, Kristen says seeing the children grow, discover, and develop brings her constant joy.

When she is not at the JCA, Kristen can be found cheering on her daughters at their soccer or volleyball games.
