Linda Bargmann moved to St. Louis in 2000 to enroll her son in Principia's Pre-School program. Eddie is now a freshman at the Upper School, where Linda's daughter attended as a boarder in 1993.

Having attended Principia College during her junior year, Linda later earned a BA in business administration and went on to complete graduate work in tax and accounting before becoming a Certified Public Accountant (CPA). She and her husband, Clarence (also a CPA), owned a tax and accounting business which they brought with them when they moved from California to St. Louis. Linda worked for Principia as an independent contractor for a few years before becoming the School Budget/Business Manager in 2004.

Linda’s other experiences include being a foster mom to a dozen children, serving on the board of directors of a large California foster parent organization, and working with the non-profit educational organization, Bible Study Seminars.
