I am currently maintaining a 4.0 as an MS Clinical Psychology Clinical Counseling student at Capella University, with special focus on patient rights advocacy, professional and interpersonal ethics, and relationship dynamics among neurodiverse partnerships. I am an active member of the APA, Psi Chi, and NSLS. I balanced research and therapeutic interventions in my undergraduate coursework at University of Maryland Global Campus, but my background includes Creative Writing under Dr. T.J. Anderson and Philosophy under Dr. James Downey at Hollins University, as well. In high school, I excelled in AP English and, as a member of the French National Honor Society, took two years of French (IV and V) concurrently in my Senior year. I have also worked for several years as a behavioral technician with neurodiverse learners aged toddler to young adult.

I want my learners to know what it feels like to "knock it out of the park". I bring my extensive knowledge of persuasive, research, creative, and business writing to even short answer questions and never tire of being "one last set of eyes" on your assignments.

As much as I teach the facts needed for class, I also have an expansive toolbox of success strategies and adaptive techniques for learners who need help with maintaining focus or accommodating for executive functioning challenges.

Approved Subjects

ADHD

ADHD

ADHD is not a learning disability or intelligence issue; it is commonly seen variations that affect attention, motivation, and/or working memory regulation. In my home, 3 of 4 people live, work, and study with ADHD phenotypes - so success for someone with hyperactivity, distractibility, or both, goes beyond theory because it is something I've helped them thrive with. I have worked with learners from pre-K to college levels, including those with IEPs, 504 plans, and Take 5 plans. We eschew punishment to address skills and scaffolding to build success based on individual learner needs, including executive function tolerance, task deconstruction, visual scheduling, and self-regulation strategies.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

I have over a decade of experience supporting autistic and AuDHD learners with varied communication abilities, learning profiles, and behavioral needs. My undergraduate and graduate psychology coursework has focused on understanding and advocating for differences in learning and self-regulation in neurodevelopmental conditions, as well. My methods and taught skills are unique to each learner, reflecting their individual pairing, sensory, or processing needs but always prioritize safety and self-efficacy to build lifelong success.
Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I have been tutoring, revising, and editing essays for students for 20+ years. I not only teach structure and mechanics, I help my learners develop an awareness of the audience's perceptions from the very beginning stages of brainstorming. While AI tools are helpful for ensuring alignment to given rubrics, the ability to persuasively and organically craft submissions will ensure they surpass the rest of the field.
