Experience

am a dedicated educator with over two decades of experience in Pasadena ISD. My journey began in the general education classroom, where I spent nine years teaching Second Grade and developing a deep love for foundational literacy. Since 2010, I have served as a Special Education Teacher, specializing in instructional planning and compliance.

Teaching style

Teaching Style My teaching philosophy centers on clarity, calm, and consistency. I believe that every student—regardless of their learning profile—deserves access to organized, high-quality instruction. In my classroom and my resources, I prioritize: Differentiated Instruction: Meeting students exactly where they are. Calming Aesthetics: Reducing sensory overload to promote focus. Evidence-Based Literacy: Using structured phonics and fluency metrics to drive growth.

Additional biographical information

When I’m not in the classroom or designing new digital downloads, I’m usually focused on my own continuous learning or managing the "busy-ness" of life in Texas with my husband and our dogs. My goal with this store is to share the practical, classroom-tested tools I’ve developed to help make the heavy lifting of special education documentation and literacy instruction just a little bit lighter for you.
