Ever since grade school, Ms. Gabby has been passionate about education. In 2016, she earned her Master's Degree from Harvard University (an Ed.M. in Educational Policy, Entrepreneurship, and Management). She also holds a B.A. in Philosophy from the University of California, Berkeley, and teaching credits from the University of San Francisco's Dual Degree Teaching Program. She has years of experience in 1:1 college consulting for students with mild to severe learning differences. She is known for her structured, yet calm approach to consulting.

For years, Ms. Gabby worked for numerous nonprofits and urban tutoring organizations, particularly serving at-risk youth and students with severe disabilities. In 2012, she founded an educational consulting company where she assisted students with mild to severe learning differences through an individualized, holistic academic approach. Over the years, she has developed several educational campaigns, including The Bay Area Disaster Preparedness Campaign and The Friendship Club Garden Project. This program integrates students with disabilities with their peers across California.

In 2014, Ms. Gabby served as a White House Intern, assisted President Obama with his education policy portfolio, drafted policies related to students with disabilities, and facilitated student correspondence. Through research grants and service projects, she has traveled to over 40 countries. She enjoys working with students in multiple countries across different time zones.

Although Ms. Gabby is a fifth-generation San Franciscan, she now lives full-time in Paris, France (after living in Portugal for the past five years). She is a native English speaker and is proficient in Portuguese, Spanish, and American Sign Language (ASL). She is also actively learning French! Aside from teaching, Ms. Gabby enjoys hiking, traveling, writing poetry, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
