Hi, I'm Shannon.

I help parents and educators build confident readers using tools backed by research and guided by compassion.

I know how overwhelming it can feel when a child struggles with reading—or when a parent doesn’t know how to help. As a literacy specialist and parent coach, I created Literacy Simplified to remove the confusion and give families a clear path forward.

I know how overwhelming it can feel when a child struggles with reading—or when a parent doesn’t know how to help. As a literacy specialist and parent coach, I created Literacy Simplified to remove the confusion and give families a clear path forward.

With years of experience as an educator, instructional coach, and school consultant, I’ve supported hundreds of families and teachers using evidence-based strategies grounded in the Science of Reading. But more than anything, I care about helping kids feel confident—and helping adults feel equipped to guide them.

I believe every child deserves access to strong literacy skills—not just for academic success, but for life. And I believe parents deserve practical tools that work. That’s why I offer simplified resources that turn research into real-world results.
