We live in a world of colorful abilities and I have been given the opportunity to share this life with an amazing son and husband.

I am a blogger, disability advocate and a Special Education teacher. I obtained my teaching instruction from Region 13 and am currently working in a near by school district. I received my Associates degree from Austin Community College in Sign Language Interpreting and my Bachelor’s from Texas A&M University-Commerce in Applied Arts and Science.

Using my 11 years experience at the Texas School for the Deaf and a mother to a special little guy has proved to be helpful along my career journey. These things have led me down the road to become a teacher. I am grateful for this journey as it led me to my passion.

I have an adorable and vivacious son named Linden. He is fearless and blissfully happy. He was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy along with many other disabilities/abilities. Don’t be fooled by his wheelchair or walker, as he can do so much more than most. He is a strong-willed child, highly motivated, and a great negotiator (always negotiating for more cookies). I find myself advocating for him daily ranging from his education, private services, equipment needs, and community accessibility. With my dedication to him and to many other friends with children with needs; I have made it my purpose to help them in any way I can.

My amazing, selfless, and kindhearted husband, William, has stood by my side during the entire time of my goal-planning journey. He is a firefighter, awesome dad, and wonderful husband. His commitment to his community and his family is unremitting.

These two are my everything. They are my guiding light, support and motivation to accomplish my goals. I dedicate this site to them. For without them this wouldn’t of been possible. I love you guys!
