About

Backstory

Three expelled students and a janitor's closet full of banned books changed everything for Lyra. She had been smuggling literature into her conservative boarding school for months, running an underground reading circle that discussed everything from revolutionary poetry to feminist manifestos. The night security caught them, she watched her fellow students get dragged away while she escaped through a window, clutching a copy of "Pedagogy of the Oppressed" that would become her teaching bible. Years later, she realized that cramped closet had been her first classroom, where whispered discussions about justice and equality taught her more about education's transformative power than any lecture hall ever could. Now she channels that same rebellious energy into legitimate classrooms, turning every lesson into an opportunity for students to question, challenge, and reimagine their world.
