Here is my story and my passion behind my choice in career.
My two best friends growing up were disabled. One had physical disabilities and the other had learning challenges. Everyday, I watched them battle with their peers in the social world. They were picked on, left out and ridiculed on the playground. They fell behind in school. Even at a young age I knew this was so wrong. No one should be treated that way and meant to feel socially alone in the world or lost at school. I have been teaching social emotional learning since 2004. That’s 20 years of ALL the things you need to grow your social brain!
It is now my mission to teach children, adolescents, and young adults how to develop healthy social relationships

When Social Skills in a Box was born in my head, I knew I wanted to have the biggest impact on parents and kids, create a movement. Then I knew I needed to invite top level social, emotional and brain health professionals. I am so thrilled to see this dream come true!
