Certified Parent Peer Specialist
I have been a teacher in various schools and with many different ages. I started my teaching career as a fourth-grade teacher and most recently I worked with 3-year-olds. Teaching is a great challenge because we help kids learn everything from math to emotional regulation. And I love a challenge!
I believe we should use our adverse experiences to help others by sharing the resilience and knowledge we gained. “If you have knowledge let others light their candles in it” Margaret Fuller

I have also worked as a Parents as Teachers parent educator, and I was a Nurturing Program facilitator. Which led to me creating my own parenting program for parents with challenging children based on the concepts in the book Raising Your Spirited Child. I used lots of my own experience in these roles because I had challenging spirited young children.
As my children grew their problems grew and I have lived parenting experience in these areas:
All three of my children have become successful young adults with lots of coping skills and resilience gained from their life experiences. My son builds Subaru race car engines for IAG. My older daughter is a Certified Peer Specialist, and my youngest daughter is a Medical Assistant.
