Every student has the potential to deeply understand mathematics.

Their teachers have to understand it first.

I support educators in teaching math with clarity, ownership, and intentionality, grounding instructional decisions in student thinking and deep understanding.

I believe every student is capable of understanding mathematics deeply, and that every teacher deserves support grounded in curiosity and respect for their expertise.

My coaching starts with what students know, not what they don’t, so teachers can build on strengths and create access to rigorous, grade-level content.

I support schools in developing instruction that is rich, inclusive, and centered on meaning-making — not just memorization.

What I offer:

Coaching & School Partnerships

Ongoing, collaborative support for teachers, coaches, and leaders. I work side by side with educators to strengthen instructional practices, plan lessons with intention, and center student thinking in every math classroom.

Workshops & Professional Learning

Interactive, math-rich professional development tailored to your team’s needs. Workshops focus on helping educators deepen content knowledge, facilitate reasoning-based instruction, and engage all learners in meaningful discourse.
