Jessi Dall founded Sophos Speech and Academics with a simple but powerful belief: every child deserves the chance to learn in a way that makes sense to them. As both an educator and a mom to three, Jessi understands how deeply families want to see their children succeed. Navigating her own children’s neurodivergences has also shown her how frustrating it can be when traditional learning environments don’t meet a child’s needs.

With more than 20 years of experience in education and child development, Jessi built Sophos as a place where evidence-based practice meets empathy. Her approach is warm, personal, and grounded in the belief that people are more important than programs. Families describe her as someone who listens deeply, sees the whole child, and designs individualized plans that build both skill and confidence.

What drives Jessi most is witnessing the moment a student realizes, “I can do this.” Whether it’s a first grader mastering reading or a high schooler rediscovering their love of learning, she finds purpose in every success story. Through Sophos, Jessi continues to create a community where children, families, and educators work together to help every learner thrive!
