Meet Andrew.

Where this work comes from.

I taught for twelve years across Title I, refugee, affluent, virtual, and dropout recovery settings. Middle school science was where I spent the longest stretch, but the through-line was always the same: figuring out what a student actually needed and finding a way to deliver it within the system I was working in.

That experience is what made me a school psychologist, and it is what shapes the tools I build now. I know what it feels like to sit at a MET meeting with scattered documentation, to write a BIP that no one will follow, or to run a CBM probe in a spreadsheet that nobody else can interpret. Every part of REDAssist and CBM_Tracker is a response to a problem I lived inside a classroom or an evaluation room first.

I am also a husband, a father of two sons, a bluegrass guitar player, a gardener, and a lifelong learner with severe ADHD that I was diagnosed with later in life. That last part is not incidental. It shaped how I think about students, motivation, and the gap between what people are capable of and what systems give them room to do.
