About the store

I have a strong foundation in early childhood education and behavior science, which shapes every resource I create. I earned my degree in Early Childhood Education and spent 4 years as a preschool teacher, where I developed a deep understanding of how young children learn best through structure, engagement, and play-based strategies. After my time in the classroom, I transitioned into the field of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), working as a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT) while completing my Master’s degree in Applied Behavior Analysis. I am now a Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA) and have been practicing for 2 years, supporting children with diverse learning and behavioral needs. My resources are designed to be: • Classroom-friendly and realistic for teachers • Developmentally appropriate • Behavior-supportive and structured • Especially helpful for students who benefit from visuals, routines, and clear expectations I love creating materials that bridge education and behavior support, so teachers can spend less time planning and more time teaching.

Experience

Teaching style

My teaching style is rooted in child-led, teacher-supported learning. I believe children learn best when their interests, strengths, and developmental level guide the experience, while the adult provides structure, modeling, and gentle support to help them succeed. I place a strong emphasis on personalization. I love adapting materials to individual learners so expectations are clear, meaningful, and directly connected to the child. When children understand how expectations apply to them, they feel more confident, capable, and successful. A major focus of my work is social and emotional development. I intentionally teach skills such as emotional regulation, communication, problem-solving, and positive behavior through visuals, routines, and supportive guidance. My goal is to help children build not only academic skills, but also the emotional tools they need to thrive in school and in life.
