I partner with educators, learning organisations, and institutions worldwide to reduce barriers, build strengths-based systems of support, and design experiences that ignite inclusive inquiry for all learners.

Based in Germany, my work brings together UDL, asset-based pedagogies, and the thoughtful integration of technology to create the conditions for real, lasting change for every learner.

“Inspiring, knowledgeable, and compassionate.”

Directors, educators, and learning leaders share what it's like to partner with me. Read their words

My Story

My commitment to designing a more inclusive future took root during my early years teaching students who are blind and low vision, and deepened through sixteen years supporting learners at an IB international school, where I served as Secondary School Learning Support Coordinator.

In 2025, I was honoured to receive the CAST UDL Anne Meyer Design Award for my dedication to advancing Universal Design for Learning.

Today, as an educator and consultant, I work alongside schools and learning organisations around the world. I have shared keynotes with more than 900 educators in Hong Kong, created LUDIA, an AI thought partner for UDL, and built the no-cost Aiming for ALL Accessibility Collection and UDL Resources.

Starting with Choice

I design professional learning experiences around meaningful choice. Here, I offered a simple one: take time to reflect on your own, or talk through the question with colleagues.

Reaching ALL Learners

Barriers exist in the design of learning experiences and environments, not in learners. Together, we can identify barriers and unlock learner agency!

Designing for Variability

No two learners are alike. My work embraces variability from the start, designing learning environments where every learner can find access, challenge, and belonging. When we design for the edges, we create the conditions for all learners to thrive.
