Michelle Wilkins

Professional Impact

With over a decade of experience shaping young minds, she has built a career rooted in compassion, patience, and dedication to early childhood education. Beginning as an educational technician in 2013, she quickly found her calling and advanced to a lead Pre-K teacher role just two years later. Known for her nurturing approach and commitment to each child’s growth, she inspires confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning—earning the admiration of families and colleagues alike.

Personal Passions

Her greatest joy comes from family and connection, whether she’s cheering from the sidelines at her children’s games, playing board games at home, or enjoying time outdoors. A proud mother of three and devoted animal lover with three dogs and two guinea pigs, she fills her days with laughter and energy. She also channels her resilience and heart into causes that matter—most notably riding 25 miles in the Dempsey Challenge in honor of her late father, a deeply meaningful tribute that combined strength, healing, and community support.

Love for Androscoggin

A Lewiston native, she finds beauty and belonging in the heart of Androscoggin County. Her local “starter kit” includes coffee at Little River Coffee Shop, treasure hunts at Sippy Cup Consignment, and strolls along the scenic River Walk. She and her family love supporting local businesses, exploring farmers’ markets, and taking advantage of the area’s many walking trails—a perfect reflection of her love for both community and connection.
