Custom Tool Builds
for Education Teams

Not off-the-shelf software adapted to fit your workflow — a purpose-built tool designed around your actual procedures, compliance requirements, and practitioner realities.

Who This Is For

Built for Teams With Specific Workflow Problems

If your team has tried commercial tools and they don't fit the way you actually work, a custom build might be the right path.

🏛️

Districts Needing a Workflow Tool That Doesn't Exist

Your evaluation process, intervention tracking, or compliance documentation follows local procedures that no vendor has built for. You need a tool shaped to your workflow, not the other way around.

🤖

Organizations Exploring AI-Assisted Evaluation or Behavior Support

You want to explore what AI-assisted drafting, progress monitoring, or data extraction can do — but with someone who understands the clinical guardrails and FERPA requirements, not just the technology.

💼

Consultants or PD Providers Needing a Co-Build Partner

You deliver training, coaching, or technical assistance and want a proprietary tool to pair with your services — built by someone with school psychology credentials who understands the clinical context.

🌱

Microschools or Alternative Settings Needing Lightweight, FERPA-Aware Tools

You run a small, independent, or virtual program and need a simple documentation or monitoring tool that doesn't require a server, a login system, or a district IT department to maintain.

The Process

What Collaboration Looks Like

A structured process from scoping to deployment — designed so you always know where the project stands.

1

Discovery & Scoping

We map your current procedures, data requirements, and compliance rules. The output is a clear scope document describing exactly what gets built.

2

Design & Prototype

Interactive wireframes show screen density, data flows, and how clinical parameters are visualized. You review a clickable prototype before any code is written.

3

Build Using AI-Assisted Development

Clean, readable code built with advanced AI-assisted tools. No proprietary black boxes — you receive conventional, maintainable source code that follows established standards.

4

Iterate With Practitioner Feedback

As a practicing school psychologist, I stress-test the tool against real workflow scenarios — busy MET meetings, tight documentation timelines, a school day that doesn't pause for software training.

5

Handoff or Sustained Maintenance

You decide the delivery model — a local-only file for your intranet, a hosted web app, or full source handoff. Ongoing maintenance partnerships are available for teams that want continued iteration.

What I Bring

Built by a Practitioner,
Not a Vendor

Software vendors build for sales teams. I build for the person sitting in a MET meeting with 15 minutes to present three years of data. That difference shows up in every screen, every label, and every export layout.

Fifteen years of classroom teaching across Title I, refugee, virtual, and dropout-recovery settings — followed by a transition into school psychology — means I've lived inside the systems these tools are designed to support.

I take a small number of build engagements at any given time to ensure direct clinical involvement and high-fidelity design throughout the project.
