About the store
I am a special education teacher currently working in a 3rd–5th grade 6:1:3 autism classroom, where I design structured, data-driven instruction and IEP-aligned materials to support diverse learners.
My teaching experience spans a variety of settings, including:
Dual-language 3rd grade (urban setting)
2nd grade (rural setting)
6th grade inclusion
Kindergarten–2nd grade at a private Christian school
I began my journey working at a sleepaway summer camp, where I lived in a cabin with eight campers and led multi-age Bible exploration groups — an experience that ignited my passion for teaching and mentoring the next generation.
My resources are created with real classroom experience in mind: practical, efficient, and designed to support both teachers and paraprofessionals.

Teaching style
Most of the resources on this site are designed for students on the autism spectrum, with a focus on supporting non-verbal learners. Additional resources include literacy materials grounded in the science of reading, as well as occasional faith-based materials for Sunday school.
My own education history
I received a Bachelor of Science in Inclusive Childhood Education from Houghton University in 2023 and hold New York State Initial Certification in Childhood Education (Grades 1–6) and Special Education (1-6).
Additional biographical information
I currently live in Buffalo, NY, with my two kittens and am soon to be married. In my spare time, I enjoy participating in my church community, creating music and art, and going on long hikes. Fun fact: I have performed in two concerts with the Buffalo Philharmonic Choir.
