ChildConnections Magazine is my current project and the one that I am most proud of. I am the editor of this quarterly regional magazine dedicated to issues facing students with developmental and learning challenges and their families. As editor, I choose the writers, determine the editorial calendar, proofread the work of all freelance writers and write several features and department pieces each issue.

Topics I have written about:

Dyslexia
ADHD
Transition
Social Learning Disorders
Asperger's Syndrome and Autistic Spectrum Disorder
Sibling issues
Stress
The importance of parent support
And much more...
