I am an Early Intervention Professional Development Consultant with the Partnership for People with Disabilities at Virginia Commonwealth University. I have worked in the field of early intervention (EI) for over 24 years as an educator, service coordinator, supervisor, trainer, author, and consultant. I currently work as part of Virginia's EI professional development team developing resources and conducting web-based and in-person training. I manage content for the Virginia Early Intervention Professional Development Center (www.veipd.org/main/) and write the Early Intervention Strategies for Success blog (www.veipd.org/earlyintervention). I am the co-author of the book, Family-Centered Practices in Early Intervention: Supporting Infants and Toddlers in Natural Environments. My interests include adult learning and EI service delivery, family centered practices, supporting family implementation of intervention strategies, and finding ways to help bridge the research to practice gap through interactive professional development for in-service EI practitioners. I enjoy presenting workshops both face-to-face and online, have consulted with other states, and have presented at state and national conferences.
