Author Bio:
Shelley is a wife, mother, dog lover, special education teacher, speaker, and education consultant. She believes that while we each know who we are today, we don’t know who we will be tomorrow. The example she uses to shed light on this is the caterpillar turning into the butterfly. Shelley believes in promoting acceptance, inclusion, and having no limits when it comes to people with special needs and their potential. Shelley was a special educator for over two decades and helped her students accomplish more than doctors, teachers, peers, and family members thought those students ever would. She believes in making the world better for all, one IEP at a time.
