Shoe Lover I Book Addict I Dreams in Hex Colors

Richele is a homeschooling mom of 4 children ranging in age from 9 to 20 who doesn’t even own a globe. She has perfectly polished nails or hair perfectly in place but never both. Navigating through mountains of laundry and scaling piles of notebooks, she finds her office (favorite chair in the living room) and creates lessons and unit studies. Her obsession with fonts and dreams of hex colors led her to create Ruby Ink Design.

In her many years of homeschooling, Richele has experimented with different educational methods, curriculum brands, and experienced the challenges of Dyslexia with three of her girls. She has used a virtual school, sent two children to school, removed one from school, and sent one off to college. Richele has a collegiate background in educational psychology. She is an experienced curriculum reviewer and an Orton Gillingham tutor.

Richele is the author of Princess Training: For the King’s Glory, Armor of God, and Making Narration Fun. She is co-author of It’s the Heart, Not the Hemline: A Biblical Unit Study on Modesty.
