I know many parents are desperate to close gaps and support their children with reading and spelling. Our schools stumbled through COVID causing a critical interruption in learning. In addition, the educational philosophy and teaching practices in many of our schools have failed to provide children with the specific knowledge needed to learn to decode and encode efficiently. I would love to help YOU, help your child improve their literacy skills!

After graduating from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill with a degree in Elementary Education, I returned to my hometown of Winston-Salem, NC to teach in the public school system. Once I became a mother of two boys, I stayed at home for several years to raise and support them on their paths to literacy. As they reached middle school, I was ready to get back into teaching with a renewed passion to help struggling students learn how to read. I trained in the Orton-Gillingham Approach at Triad Academy, a division of Summit School. Triad Academy is a nationally accredited program for students with dyslexia where I taught for many years.  

Since moving to Texas in 2019, I have spent thousands of private tutoring hours teaching dyslexic students how to read and spell using my relatable stories combined with multi-sensory teaching strategies. When I am not working with students, I love hanging out with my husband and traveling to see my grown boys!
