. I was blessed to be trained in Orton Gillingham in college, and am excited to see these new programs on the market. I enjoy the outdoors and the adventures we have on our cattle farm! I look forward to another great year of learning! Below is a picture from Summer 2023 with my family at the Cliffs of Moher in Ireland (my mom's birthplace).

Hello there, I'm Lily! I am a licensed K-5th Elementary teacher and a Reading Specialist here at Bright Minds Solutions. I have worked in suburban, urban, rural, online, and homeschool settings with grades K-8th over the last 5 years. I was homeschooled and earned my bachelor's degree online in less than two years. After 3 years in public education teaching title 1 reading, I was deeply drawn to the idea of returning to my roots. I loved homeschooling and have a passion for helping families have a positive experience with their homeschooling journey as well. I am so excited to be a part of Bright Minds and I can't wait to help your child to soar! I am currently living at home with my family and our 80 chickens and ducks, but will soon be married to my wonderful fiance'. I can't wait to learn more about you!
