Hello!
I’m so glad you landed on my lil corner of the internet! After 26 wonderful years in the classroom, engaging students and sprinkling knowledge like confetti, I turned my passion for teaching into ROCKIN RESOURCES® and ROCKSTAR WRITERS®—two platforms designed to motivate reluctant learners and empower teachers.
With a Master of Arts in Teaching and National Board Certification, I’ve also been inspired to write professional development books and children’s books that weave expressive language with meaningful character development.
When I’m not writing or creating, you’ll find me enjoying time with my family (and my pampered kitty), cheering at concerts, relaxing on the lake, or serving nonprofit education organizations. One of my greatest joys is hearing from former students who still call me Mrs. O.
Always persevere like a butterfly!
