Meet the Founder
Tommy Lin
Founder / Principal- Master in Early Childhood Education
- Bachelor of Science in Finance
The journey into early childhood education began quite unexpectedly. With a Bachelor of Science in Finance, Tommy initially embarked on a career in the banking sector. However, a casual conversation with his wife sparked his interest in exploring deeper into the field of Early Education.
Driven by this newfound passion, Tommy pivoted his career and earned a Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education from San Francisco State University. Over the next five years, he gained invaluable experience working in reputable schools.
Inspired by his journey and as a father of two, Tommy decided to start his own childcare center to make a genuine difference.
"Dolphin Stars is a place for people who truly care about children’s well-being. We are educators, researchers, and observers dedicated to nurturing and guiding children."
