Hi, I’m Rachel.

When I was little, I loved to play “teacher.” I pored over my grandparents’ Encyclopedia Britannica collection for hours, always wanting to learn more. I’ve always known I wanted to work with children and share my love of learning. I explored the fields of medicine, education, and psychology over my collegiate career hoping to find a niche that fit my skills and passion perfectly. I found it in School and Educational Psychology.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have the ability to help children and families understand and navigate learning differences and disabilities. I truly believe every child can be successful.
