AUTHOR, POET, TEACHER

I’m passionate about sharing the wonder of science, nature, and poetry with readers.

I believe in the magic of words to delight, inspire, and empower kids. I share creative ways for educators and caregivers to use poetry to boost concept development, vocabulary, and literacy skills.
