About Me

I am a special education teacher and parent of two children with differences whom I homeschool. Over the years I have gained extenstive knowledge on autism, speech disorders, and learning differences while raising my children and with that, I am a strong advocate for the rights of those with special needs and excercise those rights to the fullest extent whenever necessary.

My specialties include behavior mangment, behavior as a form of communication, and the integration of technology in all areas of education for all skill levels.
