Hello there! May you find inspiration to celebrate your story, even in the middle of the muddle.

I returned to my first love—the classroom—in the 2026-2027 school year. Previously, I served as a:
- professional learning director for The Lead Learners (2018-2026)
- the editor in chief of the Choice Literacy website (2019-2026)
- an instructional coach (2004-2018)
- a 7th grade teacher (2000-2004)
I write books, articles and other stuff because I’m sure stories + teachers make the world a better place. Most importantly, I’m completely charmed by my forever family. Welcome to my corner of the world.
