Workshops, presentations, and coaching for neurodivergent educators, teens, and those who work with them.

Discovering my ADHD (Combination) diagnosis later in life transformed how I understand myself—as an educator, learner, and human. It explained so much: the quiet, high-achieving student who needed to write everything down, the teacher who could juggle endless ideas but forget her coffee on the counter five times a morning.

 

This journey has inspired my current work, leading workshops and presentations for educators on neurodivergence, helping others recognize both the challenges and extraordinary strengths that come with thinking differently. While ADHD and ASD are often framed as disabilities, I focus on the creative, intuitive, and deeply human ways our minds work—and how we can design systems that support authenticity, belonging, and success in environments built for neurotypical norms.
