Yesterday we packed up and moved out of Austin. Over the last five years, we fell in love with the city, made amazing friends, and welcomed Lloyd into the world. Although Austin and UT Austin will forever have a piece of my heart, we’re so excited for our new adventure in South Carolina at USC!

It was such an honor to be hooded on Saturday by Sharon - it was an unexpectedly emotional moment and I immediately started crying! Nothing in this program was done in isolation, and I’m so thankful for every support I received from friends, family, and friends who are now family. Hook ‘em 🤘🏼

The IES Practice Guides and resources inform every single literacy course & training for pre-service & in-service teachers. Any literacy intervention that has evidence behind it has evidence because the studies were funded by IES, OSEP, or by NIH. Every $ spent on IES research saves tax payer $.
