I am a wife and mother to two bright and beautiful children (Tyler 12/06 & Kasey 2/09), both who thrive through homeschooling and a co-founder and Director of BRIGHTLinks.
As a former Certified Therapeutic Recreational Specialist (CTRS), I recognized the need to eliminate barriers and create opportunities to assist highly and profoundly gifted students and their families to connect with a supportive community. By creating social networks and fostering a connection to true peers, I hope to improve their social and emotional development and well-being.
