Felecia Hardy
I am the CEO of Creative Minds Learning Academy and Gloryland Express. As a native Floridian, wife, and mother of four, my passion for education and community is deeply rooted in both my personal and professional life. I graduated from Eastern Kentucky University, where I had the honor of being inducted into the Hall of Fame for my achievements as an athlete on the track and field team. I earned a Bachelor of Science there and later pursued a master’s degree from Springfield College.
I have over 20 years of experience in early childhood education, and for more than two decades, my husband and I have proudly operated businesses in Polk County. As a lifelong learner, I embrace a growth mindset and continually seek ways to grow, learn, and share the gifts God has blessed me with. My purpose is to enrich the lives of others through the goodness of God, and I approach my work with this guiding principle in mind.
In my free time, I enjoy creating lasting memories with my family, being creative, and reading. Faith is an integral part of my life, and I strive to reflect that in all that I do. I look forward to connecting with you and exploring how we can support each other’s endeavors.
Warm regards, Felecia Hardy CEO, Creative Minds Learning Academy & Gloryland Express
