As a neurodiverse educator, I have been dedicated to discovering the most efficient and effective ways to tapping into the full potential and intrinsic motivation of ND children through outside-the-box thinking and creative, critical thinking. As a Researcher, it is my nature to constantly seek out and use innovative, research-backed approaches to learning that not only acknowledge, but also celebrate each child's uniqueness. I have a background in School Psychology with a specialization in Child Development, Abnormal Child Psychology and Neuroplasiticity and hold a certification in Counseling and Executive Function Coaching.
