It’s a design principle.
I connect clinical and classroom experience with learning design to honor different ways of communicating, processing, and participating.
I love language.
My mom, Linda, was an educator and a creative. She sent me to writing workshops and encouraged me to enter poetry slams. That’s where I learned how much one word can change what someone sees or understands.
For more than a decade, I’ve worked with learners, families, and educators as a speech-language pathologist. That experience taught me to notice how people communicate, process, and participate—and where the learning environment creates a gap.
Now I connect that clinical and classroom knowledge with curriculum and learning design. I build ways into the work that respect different learners without taking the thinking away from them.
