More About MeReal solutions from real experience
It wasn’t so long ago that I was right where you are—wanting to do more for my gifted learners but feeling overwhelmed, unsupported, and unsure where to start. I know what it’s like to want to create meaningful experiences but not have the time or tools to make it happen.
Over the past 10 years, I’ve helped thousands of educators bring differentiation to life, implement Genius Hour with confidence, and design gifted services that actually serve gifted learners, not just check a box.
