Educator and Parent

I'm a graduate of UCLA and California State University, Los Angeles. I have my M.A. and teaching credential in Special Education, Assessment Certifications in Assistive Technology and Alternative-Augmentative Communication (AAC) and my Administrative Services Credential.

I live in Los Angeles with my husband, our twins and our dog. My kids are unique learners and I've sat on both sides of the IEP meeting as both a professional and a parent.

Recently, I was interviewed for the Bloomberg News, "Apps That Are Defining Accessibility" for my work with students with visual impairments. Check out the full article!

I love teaching and enjoy sharing my passion and expertise with other professionals through my virtual and in-person trainings.
