Meet NIKKI

Hi, I’m Nikki!
I’m an autism specialist, special education curriculum designer, and the founder of Teaching Autism.

With Teaching Autism I help educators to create engaging and inclusive classrooms for neurodivergent students. With over a decade of experience, I’m passionate about understanding behaviors and finding creative ways to connect with every student. I believe that every child deserves to thrive as their authentic self, and I’m here to help you make that happen in your classroom!

I had the pleasure of attending one of Nikki’s presentations, and it was nothing short of life changing. While her knowledge is impressive, it was her ability to connect with us that set her apart from others.

I feel like she shares her experience in a way that is approachable and encouraging. Her presentation on understanding behavior and its functions was eye-opening. She provided real-world examples that resonated with, I think, all of us in the room. I walked away with strategies and ideas that were practical and easy to implement. If you ever have the chance to attend one of Nikki’s workshops or presentations, don’t hesitate.

I cannot say enough about Nikki’s online training. As a special education teacher with several years of experience, I still found myself stuck when trying to address some of my students’ behaviors.

A friend recommended Nikki’s online training for some professional development. The training gave me real, actionable strategies that I could immediately put into place in my classroom. This has changed my classroom!

Joining this VIP Membership was the best decision I’ve ever made as a special ed teacher! Every month, I feel like I hit the jackpot with all of the resources and even training that she provides.

The materials she makes are high-quality, engaging, and designed with students like mine in mind. I still can’t believe how much I get each month for less than my Starbucks order!
