Experience

1. Founder & CEO

   Realgoodkidd, Llc

   Aug 2022 — Present · US

   I founded RealGoodKidd because I saw firsthand how the pandemic left kids feeling disconnected, powerless, and uninspired in their learning. As an educator, curriculum designer, and entrepreneur, I knew there had to be a better way—one that didn’t just focus on catching up academically but on empowering kids emotionally, socially, and intellectually.With over 20 years of experience as a middle school teacher, ESL instructor, and preschool teacher & principal, I’ve worked with students across different ages, backgrounds, and learning styles. I’ve seen what happens when kids feel engaged, supported, and excited about learning—and I’ve also seen what happens when they don’t. The traditional system often overlooks the confidence, emotional intelligence, and real-world skills that kids need to thrive, and I wanted to change that.RealGoodKidd was built on the belief that learning should feel like a superpower—not a struggle. Through innovation, psychology, and student-centered design, I’m creating a new approach that gives kids the tools, mindset, and motivation to take ownership of their growth and feel in control of their own success.Beyond education, I am expanding my expertise in AI Engineering and AI Product Management, integrating technology, behavioral science, and UX design to shape the future of interactive and engaging learning experiences. My mission is to create dynamic, forward-thinking solutions that equip kids with confidence, emotional awareness, and the ability to navigate the world with purpose.Let’s connect and reimagine the future of learning together.
