Public School Teacher turned Unschooler and Founder of a SDE center!

Kristen's journey from being a public school teacher to becoming an educational pod teacher during the pandemic, and eventually transitioning to unschooling and launching an unschooling-inspired space in Albuquerque, New Mexico is quite inspiring. Her passion for facilitating children's love for learning in a non-coercive way and her transition to unschooling reflect a deep commitment to alternative education methods.

Kristen's non-profit will continue to be guided by self-directed principles. A natural progression for Kristen's work that will likely have a significant impact on her community and other families worldwide. Kristen's story could serve as a valuable resource and source of inspiration for those interested in alternative education approaches and self-directed learning.
