Transforming your classroom soundtrack from ‘did we even learn this’ to ‘oh we cooking over here, I can explain it!’
without staying up until 1 am scrolling Pinterest to put together the mythical perfect lesson
I believe in empowering students. Your content helps me think I deeply about how I can do that.

Empowering students with engaging classes doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice wine down Wednesdays with your girls.
Ok but how do you get there when,
your students complain they can’t do the work before they even try
the only ‘help’ your district offers is updated pacing guides and a list of expectations without any guidance on the how
there’s a little voice in your mind saying you won’t have time to cover all the standards if you try something new
You and your students deserve BETTER
If you can see how freaking brilliant your students are even as they duck and dodge learning biology, then you can transform the soundtrack of your classroom from ‘Miss there’s no point, I just can’t do this’ to ‘Miss Miss did you see what I made on the test?!!!’
It’s time to reimagine and reconstruct science education
After a decade in education, earning a PhD in science education, and investing myself in making science education more inclusive, welcoming, and joyful, I know students and teachers deserve infinitely more than endless test prep and rushing to cover all the standards because the pacing guide said so.
I help you address the root cause of so called student apathy with resources and trainings that build students’ curiosity and confidence
so that your classroom sounds transform from ‘this is too hard, I can’t do it’ to students referencing their notes as they have heated debates about the answers.

If these are your vibe, you’re in the right place

💫 You and your students joke and vibe together but getting them to do an assignment still feels like pulling teeth
💫 You want resources and trainings to help you build student confidence and deepen student understanding of biology
💫 You’re tired of high stakes testing sucking all the joy out of biology
💫 You’re ready to enjoy your afternoons instead of obsessing over test scores
Let’s get to work.
