Heather began her company, Treetops Educational Interventions, in 2014 after attending an Orton-Gillingham training.

Since their launch on Teachers Pay Teachers in 2017, Heather and Kristina have listed and sold dozens of products using the Orton-Gillingham method and other reading subjects. In this past year, they have seen a huge uptick in sales and have more than doubled their sales from 2018. They were also recently honored as Milestone sellers on Teachers Pay Teachers. Heather currently works part-time with students who have dyslexia and other learning differences. Heather lives in St. Petersburg, Florida with her husband Ryan, daughters Juniper and Florence, and dog, Lola.
