Hi! I'm Vanessa!

Curriculum Writer and Trailblazer-in-Charge

You might know me for my Pre-K and kindergarten curriculum, my bestselling book *Teach Smarter: Literacy Strategies for Early Childhood Teachers*, or the Soar to Success Summit, the top professional development event for Pre-K and Kindergarten teachers.

But before all that, I was a Pre-K teacher for over 20 years. In the early days of my career, I worked long hours to create engaging curriculum, lessons, and activities that truly benefited my students. This dedication led to writing the ELA Pre-K curriculum for my district and becoming the Instructional Specialist for over 40 Pre-K teachers.

I created the Teaching Trailblazers program to support wonderful teachers like you. This program offers research-based, hands-on curriculum, professional development training, mentorship, and a supportive community.

I can’t wait to welcome you inside.
~Vanessa
