About Me

I am a Flint, Michigan native and have lived in Houston, Texas since 2004. I have taught, coached, and written curriculum in one of the largest school districts in the country. I love kids and books, and I love when kids love books. 

I am available for professional development sessions on any of the following topics (and more!):
  • Picture Books in the Secondary [ELA/Social Studies/Science] Classroom
  • Microunits: Tiny Texts, Big Ideas
  • Facilitating Tough Conversations in the Classroom
  • Boosting Student Discourse
  • Memes and More: Thinking Outside of the Box for Texts
  • Building Your Classroom Library
  • Building a Novel Unit
  • TEKS, Texts, and Teaching
  • Prepping Without Panicking: Beyond the Bootcamp
Contact me with your budget and I am happy to work with you and your district.
