I’m looking forward to representing ClemsonCofEd at the European Conference on Literacy this week near Chania, Crete, Greece, hosted in part by the Federation of European Literacy Associations ✈️📖🏖️

It was a joy and honor to represent ClemsonCofEd with Dr. Mihaela Gazioglu Emily Howell at the European Conference on Literacy! We had a great group of participants with keen interest in our work with multilingual caregivers. A great conference so far!

Surround yourself with great people, and great things will happen 🥳 Happy Five Years, South Carolina ML Educator Network!

My passion project for the last five years has been starting a nonprofit, South Carolina ML Educator Network. One of our programs is a diverse book bank from which we distribute diverse texts to SC classrooms. You can help this project continue by purchasing books and supplies 🌟 amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls…

Five years ago, I did a thing! 🥳 And it changed my life 🩷 I work with some of the very best folks in SC, and I am SO proud of what WE have done and continue to do day in and day out - support teachers who in turn support ML students and families 🌎

Excited to share these gorgeous books with a local ML teacher, courtesy of South Carolina ML Educator Network! With our Diverse Book Bank, we distribute culturally & linguistically diverse texts to classrooms across SC. Yours could be next! Sign up for our mailing list here: bit.ly/SCMLEMail

My first coauthored publication is out! I love this piece because it includes so many of my favorite topics: teacher expertise, multilingual learners, advocacy, and policy. Plus, we got to feature SC 🫶🏻 Enjoy! doi.org/10.1177/146879…

I’m so proud to lead this team alongside Kristin Craft Laura McAulay & Cristina! Thank you to every single one of these volunteers. They contribute their time, talent, energy, and expertise outside of work to build up our professional community. SC has something truly special!

This is my standard advice for teachers! Find a mentor!

I finally had a chance to tame this space over the weekend. After a year of working and studying from home, it needed some attention! So much inspiration and transformation has happened here, and I’m looking forward to the next year of growth! 👩🏼‍🏫

The only way forward is together! 🌟
