About the Founder…
22 Years of Educational Excellence | Doctoral Candidate | Double Master’s Degree Holder
I didn't just study education; I lived it. With over two decades of experience in the classroom and in leadership, I have dedicated my life to the belief that every child can thrive when given the right tools. My journey has taken me from the front lines of special education to executive leadership, and now into doctoral research—all with one goal: making high-level intervention accessible to families.
A Legacy of Expertise
When you work with PanzaVentures™, you are leveraging 22 years of deep-rooted knowledge in MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Supports) and RtI (Response to Intervention). My background is built on a foundation of academic rigor:
The Literacy Architect: My Master’s in Reading allows me to dismantle the barriers to literacy, ensuring our kits are built on the science of how brains actually learn to read.
The Strategic Advocate: With a Master’s in Executive Leadership, I teach parents how to navigate the complex school system with the authority and clarity of a district leader.
The Lifelong Scholar: As a certified Special Educator and current Doctoral Candidate in Interdisciplinary Special Education, I stay at the cutting edge of research so that your child’s plan is never outdated.
Bridging the Gap
After 22 years, and as a parent myself, I know exactly where the school system ends and where family frustration begins. PanzaVentures™ is the bridge. I combine sensory-focused tutoring kits with Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) to ensure that homework is no longer a battleground, but a place of connection and growth. Let’s embark on this journey together.
