YOUR MASTER IEP COACH®
I’ve been in the education field for 19 years and received my Board Certification for Special Education Advocacy from the National Association of Special Education Teachers.
I have been an integral part of helping my sister through her journey as a mom of a neurodivergent child. Seeing how my niece is now thriving in school has motivated me to want to help other parents.
I'm a proud member of the Master IEP Coach® Network and can't wait to help you
on your IEP journey!
Cheering You On,

NEED HELP WITH A 504 PLAN?
I HAVE YOU COVERED THERE TOO!
What Is a 504 Plan?
A 504 plan ensures equal access to education for students with disabilities. 504 plans focus on accommodations rather than modifications.
What’s in a 504 Plan?
Accommodations: Changes that don’t alter what students learn but adjust how they learn.
Services: Some students may receive services like speech-language therapy or study skills classes.
Eligibility and Process:
Students with disabilities that significantly impact their daily activities can qualify for a 504 plan. 504 plans are essential for ensuring that all students thrive in school, regardless of their unique needs.
Stop losing sleep over IEP meetings!
Your child and your family need you for so many things. From deciding what's for dinner to scheduling therapy appointments, and running errands on a Saturday.
School struggles should not be stealing so much of your energy.

questions?
- Do you work in my state?
Yes, I can help parents in all 50 states. Majority of IEP struggles are rooted in Federal Law that governs all states. If I need to reference anything specific for your state, I will do so and I have resources in all states to support any state specific questions.
2. Do you attend IEP meetings?
Yes, I can attend IEP meetings. However, my goal is to give you all the tools you need to be the voice for your child. My role at the IEP table is to support you and make sure your voice is heard, requests are respected, and proper decisions are made.
3. Do you give legal advice?
I’m not a lawyer and I don’t give legal advice. I can absolutely use the foundation of the law to support you, your IEP requests, and help you negotiate for an appropriate IEP for your child.
