Tapping into the highest brain power.
I help students achieve their full academic potential by coaching them on executive function skills, academic strategies, and effective mindful practices. The skills, strategies and practices that I teach are missing from nearly all school curricula despite leaders knowing that these are the secrets to success in school and beyond.
