About Amy

My approach to education is holistic. I believe learning should support not only academic achievement, but also emotional and physical well-being. I integrate principles of nutrition, wellness, and mindfulness into my work, developing programs and strategies that help children and teens thrive both in and out of the classroom.

I hold a Master’s degree in Education from Manhattanville College and am a Master Certified Nutrition and Wellness Coach through Nutritious Life Studio, where I trained in integrative approaches to nutrition and wellness.

My work is rooted in a lifelong commitment to education and student growth. Inspired by my early experience as a figure skating instructor and by growing up as the daughter of a teacher, I have always been passionate about helping children and teens thrive as learners.

For more than 20 years, I have taught in private schools throughout the Westchester and Fairfield areas and bring extensive experience supporting students with diverse learning needs. I am trained in Lindamood-Bell, Preventing Academic Failure (PAF), and Orton-Gillingham methods, and I specialize in one-on-one tutoring, individualized learning plans, and organizational support.

Over time, I recognized that academic success is deeply connected to a child’s overall health and well-being. With my nutrition training, I began intentionally integrating wellness strategies into my academic work so I could better support the whole child—both inside and outside the classroom.

This unique combination of educational experience and wellness training allows me to support students in a comprehensive way—academically, emotionally, and physically—helping to lay the foundation for lifelong health and success. By partnering closely with families and educators, I help students build confidence, resilience, and the tools they need to succeed.

Throughout my career, one constant has guided me: a dedication to lifelong learning and advocating for children and teens. I find the greatest fulfillment in supporting their growth, easing their struggles, and walking alongside families every step of the way.
