About Us

Ellie, a junior in college studying Government with an emphasis in public policy, brings a sharp analytical mind and creative flair to our content. With four years of experience in copywriting and ghostwriting, she ensures that our lessons are not only informative but also engaging and well-written. As a nationally ranked debater, Ellie developed skills in in-depth research and clear communication, which she now applies to develop rich, thought-provoking lesson topics.

Troy holds a Masters in Arts, Curriculum and Instruction, and has over a decade of professional teaching experience. He brings his expertise in curriculum development and instructional design to create well-structured, engaging lessons. Now a cloud architect and a dad to Brady, Troy's unique perspective ensures our lessons are both technically sound and deeply empathetic to the needs of spellers and their families.

With an Masters in gifted and talented education and over 30 years of teaching experience across the globe, Darcy infuses her wealth of knowledge and global perspective into every lesson. As a Spellers Method Provider and trained in Spelling to Communicate, she crafts lessons that are intellectually stimulating and accessible, ensuring they meet the diverse needs of all learners. Her personal experience as a mother to a spelling son (Brady) adds an extra layer of insight and dedication to her work.

Brady is the inspiration behind everything we do at SpellAdventures! He leads the Spelling Revolution for the Down syndrome population and aims to bring hope to all his "Homies with an Extra Chromie," as he affectionately calls them. Known for his wit, warmth, and resilience, Brady embodies the  heart of our work. His insights not only enrich our content but also remind us daily of the power of communication and presuming competence. Brady truly embodies the spirit of innovation and hope that drives us forward at SpellAdventures.

Grace’s love for learning and her role as a communication partner to her brother, Brady, shine through in her contributions. She brings a personal touch to our lessons and finds topics that are both interesting and engaging. Grace's firsthand experience watching her brother bloom with the Spellers Method allows her to find content that is truly relevant and supportive.

Meet Mango, our cheerful unofficial mascot at SpellAdventures! While Mango doesn't actively contribute to our lessons, his joyful presence and enthusiasm uplifts our team daily. As the youngest family member, Mango's lively energy reminds us of the importance of creativity and joy as we craft lessons.
