Special education teacher at Lionsgate Academy and West Metro Learning Center, teaching life skills that build students’ confidence and independence.

At West Metro Learning Center, I develop tailored lessons in safety, social skills, and emotional regulation for individuals with autism and other disabilities. I use visuals, real-life examples, and interactive activities, then help students practice those skills in the classroom and on community outings.

At Lionsgate Academy, I teach two life skills class levels and design curriculum in areas including communication, culinary skills, household management, community safety, and vocational readiness. I bring learning into practice through hands-on activities and community-based experiences.

My work at Northway Academy involved one-on-one support for children with autism and other exceptionalities, following ABA program protocols and using positive reinforcement. I’ve also supported students’ independence and personal care needs in school and direct-care settings.
