The person behind the work
Hello. I’m Hope.
Educator, instructional technology coach, advocate, author, and mother. My work lives at the intersection of faith, learning, family, and inclusion.
Understanding is where
belonging begins.
My background in education, graduate work in autism studies, and lived experience as the mother of twin daughters shape how I approach this work.
I write to help families feel seen, leaders feel equipped, and communities move from good intentions to intentional support.
Hello Dr. Hope brings that work together: books to open the conversation, resources to deepen understanding, and opportunities to learn alongside one another.
Through The Church That Makes Room, I invite churches to consider what it means to welcome every mind—and to make that welcome part of everyday practice.
One purpose. Many ways to make room.
