Meet the Team

At Magister, we don't just understand schools that serve students who learn differently, we've built them, led them, and transformed them from the inside. Our team has held nearly every role a school offers: classroom teacher, department chair, admissions director, Head of School. We've conducted neuropsychological assessments, directed college counseling offices, designed curriculum across all grade levels, managed residential life programs, and established the support systems that help neurodiverse learners excel.

Our collective experience spans the full spectrum of educational models: boarding and day schools, therapeutic programs and highly selective prep schools, progressive and traditional philosophies, single-sex and coed environments, faith-based and secular institutions, small dyslexia-focused programs and large comprehensive schools.

What unites us is deeper than our credentials, it's our unwavering commitment to students who think differently. We've witnessed firsthand how the right educator can unlock potential that others miss. That's why we partner with schools of all types: intimate primary programs specializing in dyslexia, large K-12 institutions strengthening their learning support, and everything in between. We find the educators who don't just teach neurodiverse students, they see them.
