Hello, my name is Diana Mangual, and I’m from the beautiful island of Puerto Rico in the Caribbean. I’ve been living in the US for 23 years, I used to be a Paramedic, but when I moved to US my career took a different path, I work as a Senior District Manager for many years, but I felt that I need to work in a place where I could help and I could make a difference. I started working for CRPE Academy in 2021, and this was the best choice I have ever made. I’m proud to be part of this great organization and family. When I’m not working, I enjoy baking and watching movies with my son. Additionally, I enjoy helping people from my church and community. Helping others is my calling and passion.

Lead Teacher
Hello, my name is Mrs. Denise
I am originally from the busy city of New York. I moved to Miami, Florida, back in 1990 for college, where I studied business and law. I used to be a Subpoena Specialist Supervisor. However, when I took time out to homeschool my children, I realized I enjoyed teaching the beauty of seeing a child learn was amazing; that’s where my journey of teaching began.
Working here at CRPE Academy has been a great pleasure; seeing the children develop their knowledge is just outstanding.
To me, CRPE Academy is not just a school, it’s a family!
