I teach, adapt, support, and sometimes perform magic tricks with lesson plans—making sure every learner gets what they need (and maybe a sticker too).
Dedicated to fostering inclusive learning environments through evidence-based strategies, collaboration, and a deep commitment to student diversity and success.
teaching methodology is rooted in inclusive, student-centered, and evidence-based practices, tailored to meet the diverse academic, social, and emotional needs of students with disabilities. I employ Individualized Education Programs (IEPs) as the foundation of instruction, ensuring goals are personalized, measurable, and achievable.

I utilize differentiated instruction, incorporating multi-sensory learning, visual supports, assistive technology, and hands-on activities to accommodate various learning styles. I emphasize positive behavior support (PBS) and Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) principles to encourage appropriate behavior and foster independence.
