Hi–We are EF Specialists. We'll help you enhance the executive function skills of your students.
Our Founding Story
In 2019, Sean found himself driving from house to house, helping students develop executive function skills that schools weren’t teaching.
The need was clear—students were struggling with organization, time management, and follow-through. And as word spread about the impact and value of these services, it quickly became too much for one person to handle.
That's when Jan stepped in.
Jan, Sean’s mom and a business guru, stepped in to help manage the growing demand. Not long after, Morgan—a roommate of Sean’s cousin—joined to provide coaching support. The team kept growing. Stephanie brought years of teaching experience and enthusiasm, and Kinyatta followed, adding a powerful set of skills to strengthen the mission.
We've built an amazing team.
Today, Executive Function Specialists is thriving, with a dedicated leadership team focused on empowering students to take control of their learning and lives. What started as one person in a car has become a growing community of educators and coaches committed to making a difference.
We invite you to join us in this mission—to help students everywhere build the skills they need to succeed.
