Let's do this!

Welcome to We Rise! I am so glad you have joined me on this adventure!

​

I have wanted to do this for several years and now it's actually happening! I have been motivated to do this because I have worked with many people throughout my career that need supports to overcome challenges that are not readily available or known to the general public. There are also a skills that need to accompany these tools. I plan to help you to:

• seek information about the deficit and possible tools

• learn about potential tools, strategies and supports to overcome the struggle

• overcome the struggle area by trialing and using various strategies and tools

• achieve a more independent life and the best life possible

​

I chose the name WE RISE to bring attention to how we can help each other support and  achieve our maximum potential. I want to help teachers, clinicians and families to know what the tools are and how to use them with the individual. I want to show families and friends the tools that can maximize each persons potential at home and in public settings. If we share this information, assistive technology usage will become the norm, and no longer something unusual. This concept has expanded in the past few years, as many assistive technology (AT) tools are built into your smartphone and IOT (internet of things) gadgets. 

 

The possibilities for assistive technology use are unlimited. There are new tools becoming available every day. I will share the tools and strategies to allow you, your student, your client or your loved one to live the best life they are capable of.  

​

I want each of you to seek information about assistive technology/AT and the nature of the deficit.  Come here to learn about tools and strategies. Overcome the challenge with the best fit tool available. Finally, achieve the best life possible.

Let's get to work!
