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.
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.
My core values are rooted in empathy and support. My goal is to give teachers with the tools they need to create meaningful learning experiences, while reducing the stress of lesson planning.
My favorite things include spending time with my family, rewatching episodes of FRIENDS, and the Gilmore Girls, rooting for the SF 49ers, and curling up with a good cozy mystery.
I teach in the same district I attended K-12. One of my teacher mentors is a former teacher of mine.
A membership that centers around engaging and creative lesson plans for special educators, particularly those working with students with multiple disabilities in a self-contained setting.
