THINK DIFFERENT DIPLOMATS

EMMA FAHY & KATIE SEELIG

“We know what it feels like to be in your shoes, and we’re proof that you can make it.”

Emma and Katie are successful young leaders who have been challenged by dyslexia throughout their lives--and as recent graduates of Gonzaga University, they’re traveling cross country to strike out the stigma associated with LD and ADHD. Their stories of achievement will inspire parents, teachers, and students alike. Included in their presentation are tips on self-advocacy, self-esteem, meta- cognition, accommodations, and effective school transitions.
