About Me

As a second-generation independent educator, I am excited about sharing the beauty and peace of this remarkable educational path with those who are curious or new to independent education. I have two sons (8 and 23) and have taught in various independent settings for two decades. 

​

As co-founder of the Instructional Coaching Group with my husband, my love of writing, learning, and photography came together. In addition to partnering with Jim to guide ICG, I also am the staff photographer, local event coordinator, and co-author of reflection guides. 

​

Having been educated in and having worked in both conventional and independent educational spaces, I am in a unique position to encourage and promote a clearer understanding of independent education. This space is where I'll curate thoughts, resources, and experiences partly in answer to folks who wonder how I do what I do as well as to cheer on and stand with the independent education community in general. 

 

My husband, the boys, a couple huge dogs, and I call both Kansas and Nebraska home.
