Jami's work in Special Education began over 30 years ago and continues every day in her professional as well as her personal life. She brought her visionary dream of L.I.F.E., Learning is for Everyone, to reality when she developed Diamond Learning Center, where students achieve their own successes, no matter their abilities or disabilities.
As the proud mom of three boys, Isaiah and twins Samuel and Elijah, whom she affectionately calls her 'Three Kings', Elijah - who has Down syndrome - provides inspiration for her every moment of every day. In 2016 Jami founded ISE Publishing Company and the Reading for L.I.F.E. Series. ISE stands for Including Someone Everyday.
