Michele is a physician, author, wife, and mother with a passion for helping families raise confident, money-smart kids. Inspired by her own children, she first created Reach For The Stars to fill a gap she discovered—financial literacy resources for young learners were scarce, yet so essential.

Like many parents, Michele didn’t learn about money management until adulthood. Determined to change that for the next generation, she began writing stories and creating tools that make financial concepts simple, fun, and inspiring for kids.

Her work is about more than money—it’s about planting seeds of confidence, encouraging children to think big, and equipping families with the tools to build brighter futures together.
