I hope you’ve been enjoying a wonderful summer and taking some time to relax and recharge. You absolutely deserve it!

As we approach August, it’s a great time to reflect on any summer goals you might have set. Whether for yourself or those you care about, it’s never too late to take a step forward.

🎓 For Students

With just a few weeks left of summer break, now is the perfect opportunity for students to brush up on their tech skills, organize last year’s digital clutter, and prepare for the new school year. Back-to-school strategy sessions can make all the difference!

🏡  For Families

Are you planning to spend time with aging loved ones? Or do you or others struggle to stay connected and organized using devices? I’m here with effective strategies and solutions.

🗂️  For Professionals

If you are in a quieter work period or your kids are at camp, maybe it’s time to streamline your digital routines.

I’m ready to help! Schedule a call with me, and let’s make things happen.  (Note: I am totally booked for the week of August 5th, but as of right now, I have availability for the other weeks in August.) I attached a flyer. Feel free to email me for pricing and a detailed description of services.

🎁 Freebie Alert!

As a panelist at the CCD Capitol Hill Briefing and a recent contributor to the ASHA Leader with a blog titled Advocating for Accessibility, The First National Assistive Technology Day, I’m excited to keep the momentum going by offering a free two-page resource on assistive technologies for communication and cognition.

Upcoming Presentations

I truly enjoy customizing presentations and collaborating with organizations and service providers. It’s hard for educators, therapists, diagnosticians, and families to keep up with tech. I am especially intrigued by all that AI now makes possible! It’s both an exhilarating and scary time. Could you use help figuring out how to take advantage of the new capabilities of tech for your workflow and improving outcomes? It’s my pleasure to help you figure it out.

Click here to see a sample of upcoming events. Some are open to the public, others only for private groups. More learning opportunities will be posted soon!

Together, let’s leverage technology to make a difference. I’m looking forward to an amazing fall with you all!

Warm regards,

Joan
