If you're looking for my free resources & coaching for parents of intense gifted & twice-exceptional (2e) kids, check out The Gifted Learning Lab.
Speaking & Training
I currently offer trainings on giftedness and twice-exceptionality for mental health professionals. In the past, I have supervised psychology graduate students, trained teachers and educational administrators, and taught students from elementary school through graduate school. I have also spoken about psychology and education topics at meetings and conferences across the country and online.
Selected presentations
You can watch my interview with Scott Barry Kaufman about how to identify gifted students with learning disabilities for the webcast series "Critical conversations about cognitive diversity: A monthly webcast featuring the top minds in gifted and 2e education" from Bridges 2e Media & the 2e Center for Research and Professional Development.
