I’m the founder of the School Avoidance Alliance, a mission-driven company I launched in 2014 to support families and schools navigating school avoidance. At the time, few recognized the issue—fewer professionals treated it, and most schools had never even heard the term. I set out to change that. Since then, our educator training has helped schools reengage students who’ve been out for months—or even years, and our Master Class has empowered thousands of families to take action with clarity and confidence. I regularly speak to educators, mental health professionals, and youth advocates across the country. I’m a founding member of Attendance USA and part of the International Network for School Attendance. My work has been featured in national outlets like The Washington Post, USA Today, Education Week, ADDitude Magazine, and others.
