Welcome to Called & Certified!
I believe teaching is both a calling and a profession. First and foremost, I'm a follower of Christ, and I believe God has called me to serve students and support fellow educators through the gifts He has given me. At the same time, I've dedicated myself to becoming professionally equipped for that calling through over 20 years of classroom experience, a Master's degree in Special Education, certifications in Elementary Education, Special Education, and TESOL, and Lexia LETRS training in the Science of Reading.
That's the heart behind Called & Certified—called by God and certified through education, experience, and a commitment to excellence.
Whether you teach in a public school, Christian school, or homeschool, you'll find practical, engaging, standards-aligned resources designed to save you time, support diverse learners, and inspire meaningful learning. You'll also find faith-based resources for Christian educators and homeschool families who desire materials thoughtfully grounded in a biblical worldview.
