Applied Brilliance Academy was created by Dr. Ashley Haigler, a mom of twin boys on the Autism Spectrum and a leader with a background in education, STEM, and technology. After building a calm, individualized learning system at home and watching her boys grow above age level, she realized other families needed the same kind of environment.
Our learning hub serves children ages 5 to 8 who benefit from small groups, predictable routines, sensory supports, and a gentle, structured approach to reading, math, and early STEM.
