Meet Annie
A thoughtful partner in your child’s reading journey.
I’m Annie - a parent, educator, and lifelong learner who is passionate about helping children become confident, successful readers.
My goal is to help families feel understood, supported, and clear about the next step forward.
Why Literacy Matters to Me
Every child deserves the opportunity to become a confident reader.
My passion for literacy grew as I studied the Science of Reading and began teaching graduate-level literacy coursework. The more I learned, the more clearly I saw that many struggling readers do not need to try harder. They need instruction that matches how children actually learn to read.
There is nothing more rewarding than watching a child who once felt frustrated begin to see themselves as capable.
Working Together
Families should never feel left wondering what is happening or why.
I explain clearly.
You will know what we are working on, why it matters, and how it supports your child’s growth.
I support the family.
My role is not only to work with your child, but also to give you practical tools you can use at home.

What I Want Families to Feel
Confident, supported, and hopeful.
