Hi, I’m Nina.

I'm a special education teacher with 15 years of classroom experience, a mother of three, and someone who has sat on both sides of the IEP table. I founded LOLA Advocacy because I kept seeing the same thing: loving families who felt lost, unheard, and overwhelmed by a system that wasn’t easy to navigate.

I understand how schools think, how teams operate, and where the gaps are — and I use that knowledge to make sure your family never has to figure it out alone.
