Lyana is excited to join the team of educators at Bridge Academy. She grew up in Florida, where she earned her Bachelor of Science from Florida State University, followed by a Master of Education in Communication Disorders from the University of Georgia. Lyana worked in a variety of settings as a Speech-Language Pathologist before transitioning to full-time motherhood. Lyana and her husband, Doug, have homeschooled their four children for the past 19 years. The family moved to Virginia nine years ago, where Lyana has continued to be deeply involved in homeschooling communities. She has taught numerous homeschool classes and, most recently, has been part of Classical Conversations for nine years, serving as both a Foundations Tutor and a Challenge Director. Lyana is passionate about encouraging and equipping homeschool families, teaching students biblical truth, and helping them develop skills they can use throughout their lives. She is grateful for the opportunity to be part of Bridge Academy and looks forward to investing in the students.
