Creating Motivating Learning Environments

I am a literacy coach, college professor, and former middle school teacher. My goal is helping educators and other professionals learn how to create spaces where everyone (including themselves!) can thrive.

My passion is teaching educators how to integrate what we know about motivation research, cognitive neuroscience, and human development to design and create learning environments where all students can thrive.

My other passion is helping doctoral students realize their goals by successfully completing their dissertations. Much of what research tells us about motivation and the way the brain works can be applied to the graduate school journey as well.

We can also implement the strategies that lead to motivating learning environments in our own lives. Whether you are an educator looking for support to move your practice forward or a graduate student looking for support to finish your dissertation, I can help!
