My Story, My Passion

Founder and President: 

As the creator and visionary of The S.E.A.L. Foundation I have dedicated my life to helping meet the needs of those students who simply learn differently. I am deeply passionate about kids and believe we need to invest in our youth, particularly those who need us to be their voice.  I see myself as a faithful servant who works to give back to others.  Family is my bedrock and what centers me.  Our mission is to create and fund educational and social opportunities in non-public school and camp settings for students who learn differently in order to ensure they maximize their potential.

Having spent the early part of my career as a classroom teacher and being a mother of three boys, I witnessed first-hand the lack of school choice families encountered when trying to find the best fit for their children who had learning differences. It was disheartening to witness the closed doors so many parents faced if they simply wanted the culture a non-public school setting typically offers, including smaller class sizes, individualized instruction, an atmosphere that teaches the need for service and civic engagement, a college-preparatory curriculum, as well as the presence of passionate teachers and staff. That type of atmosphere, socialization, culture and family involvement can enrich both the lives of children and their families and should be available to any child, regardless of how they learn.
