About Me
I help overwhelmed special educators create engaging adapted lesson plans without the stress.
As a full time special education teacher in a self- contained classroom, mama to 3, and wife, I know what it’s like to juggle the stress of work, kids, and life.
I want to help special education teachers by giving them tools to help make their lives a little easier.
Hello!
Paint the picture of what’s possible
When I talk with other special education teachers, they often express feeling overwhelmed when it comes to adapting lessons.
I understand the challenges special education teachers face because I’ve been there myself—
Struggling to create lessons that are both engaging and accessible for students with complex needs.
I know how overwhelming it can be to adapt materials, manage various abilities, and still make learning fun, and that’s why I’m dedicated to providing resources that make this process easier.
