Consulting/Speaking
My educational consulting practice specializes in early childhood education and literacy development and provides school communities—parents, teachers, and librarians, as well as individual families, and private organizations— the tools, resources, and knowledge to ensure children learn to love reading.
In the course of my career, I have been a frequent speaker at major conferences sponsored by organizations and associations that focus on early literacy, teaching reading comprehension, reading readiness and reading skills.
