I'm an LDT-C who is ready to support parents, students, and educators in navigating the world of learning challenges.

With over 25 years of experience in the field of special education, I have served as a teacher, an educational diagnostician, instructional programmer, Child Study Team member, and educational consultant within the school environment. My goal is to provide a safe and supportive space for parents and educators to ask questions, seek guidance, and find solutions that best meet the needs of their students.

My educational journey began with a bachelor's degree in English and French from Villanova University, followed by a Master of Arts in Teaching (Teacher Education) from Montclair State University. I furthered my expertise by obtaining a post-master's Educational Services Certificate (Learning Disabilities Teacher-Consultant) from Montclair State. I am proud to hold certifications in K-12 Special Education and K-8 Regular Education.

For 12 years, I had the privilege of teaching in resource rooms and self-contained classes in New Jersey, where I gained invaluable experience working directly with students with diverse learning needs. For the past 15 years, I worked as a Learning Consultant for an educational commission in New Jersey, testing students in both public and private schools, completing educational evaluations, planning goals and strategies for students, and communicating with schools and parents.

I understand the challenges and intimidation that can come with navigating the special education landscape and recognize how overwhelming it can be to support a child who is experiencing learning difficulties.  It is my belief that parents are their child's greatest advocates, and they deserve guidance and support in understanding how to best help their children succeed. Through my expertise and experience, I aim to provide parents with the tools and resources they need to support their child's educational journey.

Additionally, I am dedicated to helping parents navigate any challenges their students may face in reading, writing, and math. With an understanding of these subjects and experience in education, I am committed to providing effective strategies and resources to support students' learning journeys. Together, we will identify and address any difficulties, ensuring that each student receives the personalized guidance they need to succeed in these fundamental areas.

I am thrilled to have you here at my site, and I invite you to explore the resources available to support your growth as a parent and educator. If you have any questions or need guidance, please don't hesitate to reach out. Together, let's create a community where everyone feels empowered and supported in their journey to help children succeed.
