I began teaching enrichment courses for teachers and educators more than a decade ago. It lasted for three years. It began during the big push for including disabled students in the mainstream classroom. There had always been some form of mainstreaming of disabled students for decades in the classroom with their normal peers.

I have written two books on Special Education for teachers and educators. Parents will find these books useful, too. I do not go into classroom mechanics or complicated language in my books. They basically include more practical information that teachers, educators, and parents can use every day. These books are Practical Teacher's IEP Manual and Practical Teacher's Autism Manual.

She is the founder and creator of the Memory Series. The Memory series focuses on teaching Autistic, Autism Spectrum Disorder, PDD, Asperger Syndrome, and ADHD children and teens social stories. They are written in the first person. It focuses on providing insights into every day social interaction in the form of a fiction book. They are for preschoolers, preteens and tweens, and teenagers. The books found in this series are Adventure Memories for Girls (preteen and tween girls), Daily Adventure Memories (preteens and tweens), My Moving Memories (preteens and tweens), Preschool Memories of my Childhood, and Memories of my Childhood (teenagers). Teenagers can learn the basics of job hunting vocabulary and situations with My First Job Memories.
