Fun Fact: Before I started teaching, I had a marketing and public relations career. After my daughter began attending Friends in 2018, I spent time substitute teaching when needed, and I eventually fell in love with the FA community and wanted to pay forward what was given to me. I have since been trained in Orton-Gillingham and Brain Frames, among other certificates and workshops.
