About

Hello. I grew up in central Texas. I currently own a home and reside in Portland, Oregon. I have been a certified elementary educator, working in the Oregon public school system since 2006. My focus as an educator quickly became helping students survive and thrive in spite of the racism and white supremacy of the public school system. I have a neurodivergent ability with language, and have helped many gifted children and adults integrate their niches, passions and quirks into their workplace and school identities. This is a rather technical way to say that if you have difficulty doing things that are not important to you, but may be necessary for your survival, I am here for you. If you hate exercise and get terrible stress-induced migraines, I am here for you. If you hate your job, but need the money, I am here for you.
