FREE IEP + Transition Planning Checklists & Roadmap

Welcome!

I am on a mission to help special education teachers and parents build better IEPs and provide customized Future-Ready Transition Programs to better prepare today’s special needs students for tomorrow’s world. 

With my lived experience of being born blind along with parenting a son on the autism spectrum, I understand there is no distance too far to prepare a special needs student to become future-ready both in and out of the classroom.  My unrelentless and collaborative advocacy approach for myself and my son has enabled both of us to surpass unimaginable possibilities.  I strongly believe that everyone in the special needs community deserves the same opportunities to be appropriately prepared for competitive employment, independent living and continued education based on their unique needs. 

Unfortunately, individuals struggle with life after special education because they are not equipped with the fundamental life and employment skills that is required to successfully and safely function in the real world.  A combination of schools having limited instructional time to focus on functional life skills and community agencies being underfunded, fragmented and not holistically servicing an individual is primary contributors to this heart-breaking issue.      

Response to my frustration of seeing the lack of students not being adequately prepared for postsecondary education, employment and independent living in adulthood has been to provide these results-oriented services. 

  • Special Education Consultation: As a Master IEP Coach®, I assist hundreds of families to discover how to maximize the benefits of an IEP and create meaningful goals and a relevant Transition Plans to promote a student’s self-confidence and self-reliance with skills required for independent living, employment and being a life-long learner.  Learn more

I can't wait to begin working with you so we can begin to unleash your child fullest potential!
