ACADEMIC COACHING

I offer individualized, strengths-based coaching for graduate, undergraduate, and high school students who feel like they could benefit from additional support in school or in their professional work.  As a former high school Environmental Science teacher, I work with all learners and am equipped to provide additional support and resources for those living with a concussion, chronic illness, neurodiversity, and/or a learning disability.  My goal as an academic coach is to serve as a non-judgmental accountability partner who supports your success as a learner.
