About Me

Allison
I am a former Special Education Teacher and used to think I knew it all... until I was blessed with a boy who is teaching me the real truths to education and life through his personal journey with Hyperlexia and Sensory Processing Disorder. I also have a daughter who is a true light in the world. As she is evolving into a young lady, I am amazed at the strength and beauty that she possesses at the tender age of ten. She has a fire in her that burns to make a difference in the world, and I have no doubt that she will!
