Manu Siddhu - Executive Director
Manu believes that true learning takes place when students are free to discover the underlying principles of the world around them through a hands-on, experiential learning model. Manu has spent the last decade of her professional career developing and implementing innovative childcare educational programs. Manu holds a M.A. in Economics and Associate Degree in Computer Science.
Since opening Kepler STEM School in 2018, Manu has been thrilled to watch our students learn and grow along with our STEM-based program. She loves creating bonds with the amazing children and families that make up our school community.
Manu like to spend her free time in traveling and exploring new places.
Sabrina Bunning - Director
Sabrina grew up in Illinois and always knew that she wanted to work with children. She attended Eastern Illinois University and earned her Bachelor of Science in Education in 2003. In 2017, Sabrina decided that she wanted to learn more about the business side of companies and went to the University of Dallas to obtain her MBA.
Since graduating, Sabrina has worked with children. She spent fifteen years working at a tutoring company, first as a tutor and then in the position of Director of Education. It was there that she realized she wanted to work with younger children, giving them the educational foundation that they would need for their school years.
In her free time, Sabrina enjoys reading, writing, playing board/card games with her friends, and hanging out with her cat, Athena.
