High-quality Classes, Private Tutoring, & Special Education Advocacy Services for toddlers - teens.
The Eastern Shore is in desperate need of comprehensive, private special education services, & support. I am so happy to provide that!
Group sizes remain small to allow for intense intervention & highly individualized supports.
Fierce advocate & highly educated special education professional.
Providing meaningful alternative education programs, designed for all.
Through working with a particular student that changed my life, I realized I have a gift of connecting to the most unique students.
I have been immersed in special education since I started as a paraprofessional over 10 years ago.
I was inspired to get my Bachelors of Arts in Special Education at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore.
I spent 7 years teaching Special Education at the Elementary and Middle School levels. During that time, I received additional training and endorsements in the areas of autism from the University of Wilmington, Dyslexia through Bowman’s Orton Gillignham Plus & Wilson Reading System. I was a mentor teacher, school improvement team member, & Team Leader for the Special Education Department.
EdTech has always been central to my practice & I have additional training in Artificial Intelligence & Apple products.
I have a deep understanding of considering sensory and cognitive profiles to develop meaningful, engaging instruction!
I am pursuing a graduate degree in curriculum & instruction from the University of Phoenix.
First hand experience has shown me that our schools still need a lot more time to provide truly inclusive, Neuroaffirming practices.
Those with disabilities are particularly underserved due to limited understanding of how impactful embracing neurodiversity can be!
I am here to bridge the gap between what your child needs & what our public schools can feasibly offer.
Society needs to move away from trying to change our kids & to embrace and build on their neurological gifts!
I left public schools in 2026 to pursue a greater dream: The MINDS Cooperative, which provides desperately needed, comprehensive, private special education services & support to families on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, Virginia, & Southern Delaware.
