Speaking and Events

I speak to two different audiences — one focused on neurodiversity and behavior, and one focused on kids' books. Different audiences, same underlying belief: understanding a kid well enough to reach them takes real work — and it's work worth talking about. If you're interested in inviting Amanda to speak at your event, please use the contact form below that matches your audience's needs. Custom topics available upon request.
