Hi, I’m Ms. Jeannette, the proud owner of Young Elites LLC. I wear many hats—creative exploration teacher, coach, event coordinator, and mentor—but at the heart of it all, my mission is simple: to give kids the space to grow, create, explore, and learn.
I believe that every child deserves the opportunity to develop essential skills that will carry them through all stages of life. As both a mom and a young adult navigating today’s world, I deeply understand the challenges kids and families face. That understanding inspired me to start Young Elites, a place where we can pave the way for tomorrow’s leaders.
I was born and raised in Orange County, California, where I discovered a love for sports, arts, and learning. From soccer, basketball, volleyball, and track & field to cheer, dance, karate, theater, art, and even culinary arts—I’ve explored a wide variety of activities that shaped who I am today. My background also includes years of volunteering in tutoring, classroom assistance, caregiving, childcare, and after-school programs.
All of these experiences fuel my passion for working with kids and creating a safe, fun, and inspiring environment where they can explore their interests and develop confidence in themselves. Young Elites is more than a program—it’s a community, and I’m so excited to continue growing it alongside the amazing families we serve.
When I’m not teaching or coaching, you can usually find me spending time with my family, exploring new creative hobbies, or enjoying the simple moments that keep me inspired.

Hi, I’m Brittany, and I’m excited to serve as the Event Coordinator for Young Elites LLC. I’ve always loved bringing people together and creating spaces that feel special, whether it’s decorating for parties, planning activities, or adding thoughtful details that make an event memorable.
As a mom and caregiver, I know how important it is for families and kids to feel celebrated and supported. That’s why I love helping design events that reflect joy, creativity, and community.
When I’m not coordinating events, you can usually find me spending time with my kids, discovering new creative ideas, or finding simple ways to make everyday moments a little brighter.
