Since then, I have become a Fellow-in-training with the Orton Gillingham Academy. I have worked with hundreds of students and educators in all parts of reading instruction.

In 2010, I became a mom to a precious little girl. As a teacher, I knew the importance of early language and literacy skills, but as a mom I began to dive deeper. I became fascinated with brain-based learning and exposing young brains to language-rich resources. My second child was born two years later and I was lucky to continue my journey tutoring students in the Orton Gillingham approach.

It was around this time (when balancing the demands of being a mom and tutoring) that I started to really think about how I could help teachers reach struggling readers. Teachers have a lot to juggle as well, so I started creating quality, no-prep resources for teachers to use in their classrooms and in their tutoring sessions. I used the same multisensory approaches that were successful with my students to guide my creation of new resources.

Fast forward to today: I’ve now sold over 33,000 resources!

I have built a wonderful community of educators from all over the world who are all passionate about helping kids learn to read. I stay current in the science of reading, which plays a crucial role in my creation of meaningful and effective resources. I know what students need to become successful readers, and I am passionate about equipping teachers and parents with the resources to help their students. I continue to add new resources to my store, so I hope that you will check back here often!
