chapter 5 of the handbook of learning disabilities, 3rd edition. i hope it teaches someone something useful. grateful for my village, especially the people who heard me panic about it since literally day 1. 😌🥹🤓

almost exactly 4.5 years ago, my phd advisor asked me to write a chapter of a textbook. i thought that was crazy and also immediately said yes.

today, i got to hold that textbook !! with that painstakingly written chapter !! in my little hands !! 📘🤲🏼

I guest lecture & TA a fair bit, and absolutely love it. Regardless of level of class (undergrad/grad), I usually get mistaken as a student in the class.
This time around, I got mistaken as a professor - “because you look so confident”.

…growth.🥹
Here’s to a great semester!
