I have a rich background in special education, including work with ADHD and non-verbal autism. My journey began in high school as a tutor and evolved into a career working with high-needs students across New York City as an Outward Bound educator. My coaching style is personalized and inquisitive. I strive to understand each student's unique needs and create a supportive environment where they feel safe to be themselves. I celebrate successes and learn from setbacks, always approaching each session with a growth mindset. My sessions focus on building personal connections and discussing shared interests before diving into our lessons. This approach helps me provide relevant advice and support tailored to each student's circumstances. I use Coachbit's curriculum to create routines that foster focus and organization while adapting to individual needs. My future goal is to expand my reach, helping more students plan their futures and guiding them through their transition from high school to college with advanced, personalized coaching. I look forward to partnering with you and your child to unlock their full potential and embark on a rewarding journey of growth and discovery.

• Hiking/Camping – As a former Outward Bound instructor; nature is a very important part of my life. I believe in the healing qualities of nature and encourage my students to implement exposure to nature in their daily lives.
• Music – I have been a music fan for as long as I can remember and I also produce music as a side hobby.
• Photography – I am an amateur film photographer! Photography is a great way for me to combine the arts with the outdoors.
• Cycling – As a former cycling instructor, I relish a long bike ride on a nice day. Cycling is a great way to transport yourself while enjoying the outdoors and improving your health.
