We chatted with Makenzie, a freshman high school student and a passionate advocate for students with dyslexia. She shares her journey of raising awareness through speaking to students and educators across the Midwest and presenting at national conferences. Makenzie discusses her experiences in the classroom, the importance of supporting neurodiverse learners, and her vision for a future where all students have access to the resources they need to succeed.
