I’m a special educator with over 30 years’ experience working with learners with significant disabilities, many of which used AAC in all its forms.
My teaching career started in Washington DC and eventually landed me at a special school in Eastbourne as part of a teacher exchange program. I decided to stay in the UK working firstly for Widgit, then Toby Churchill and finally Tobii Dynavox … always with a focus on symbols and symbol software.
I started working with the Ace Centre in March 2021 and as of May 2022 took on the role of Information and Resources Manager. I’m delighted to be working with my knowledgeable and experienced colleagues to provide all the great resources like leaflets, eBooks, symbol and alphabet charts which I hope people who use or could be using AAC and those who support them will find helpful!
