Education and Certifications
My approach to literacy is built on a deep academic foundation and a commitment to specialized training. I hold a Master of Education along with my Reading Specialist Certification and a K-12 Principal Certification. My core teaching background includes a Bachelors in Elementary Education (K-6) and a Certification in Early Childhood Education.
To further support my most struggling readers, I am Orton-Gillingham trained. This training informs every resource I create for my Title I classroom and my private dyslexia tutoring practice.
The Efficiency Expert
Before finding my calling in education, I spent 8 years in Operational Management. This private sector experience gives me a unique perspective on classroom systems. I believe that teachers should spend their time teaching, not "pushing paper."
I specialize in transforming traditional, time-consuming paper assessments into streamlined electronic tools. These resources provide real-time grading and schoolwide data analysis, allowing you to view student progress through a clear, consistent, and highly efficient lens.
