WELCOME

I’m a native Spanish speaker born and raised in Puerto Rico, and an educator, writer, and researcher with a PhD in Educational Leadership. My work sits at the intersection of education, writing, and advocacy, with a special focus on bilingual education and special education.

​

Today, Bridge of Learning is where I bring these passions together. I:

​

• Write and create resources that help families, educators, and communities understand autism, diverse learning needs, and bilingual education in clear, hopeful language.​

​

• Support graduate students and researchers as a thesis and dissertation coach, helping them clarify their ideas, organize their chapters, and write with confidence.

​

• Advocate for families of children with disabilities, connecting lived experience with research-based guidance so they feel informed, supported, and empowered.​

​

Through a blend of storytelling, research, and practical guidance, my mission is to build bridges of learning that inform, inspire, and honor the lived realities of diverse communities.

​

Alongside my academic and counseling work, I am also a creative writer. Through novels, poems, and stories of resilience rooted in Puerto Rican and Caribbean life, I explore themes of identity, family, faith, and hope. My literary work is another bridge: it invites readers to recognize themselves, heal old wounds, and imagine new possibilities for their own stories.
