My Services

I recognize that each student is unique and has individual educational needs.  I am dedicated to improving outcomes for students ages 3-21 with physical, emotional, behavioral, and developmental delays and learning disabilities.

I exist to help teachers and families collaborate to improve students' outcomes so that every student can have meaningful opportunities to participate in equal social and learning opportunities.

I am not an attorney and do not give legal advice; I offer information on educational laws, regulations, and best practices to improve student outcomes.
