When you said that you couldn't take full credit if published under an alias I got a jump scare-
Oh my gods.
But you do get full credit. To prevent other people from disguising as you, all you need to a bunch of formal documentation with your actual name on it. These can be from your publisher, or other legal contracts signed separately.
Moreover, to tackle the CV issue (because this would be applicable to my own portfolio), the solution I found was that you could list all your published books under the alias, then state your reason for choosing an alias, along with an e-copy or a picture of documentation to verify that it really is you (this is where all those other contracts you signed come into the picture).
It sounds like a lot and can be a hassle, but it's worth it if you do want to protect your privacy. It won't create any barriers to full ownership, as long as you have the appropriate documentation, and other proof to verify that you're the actual author.
And if you want to email it to schools, using an alias shouldn't really be a big deal. Again, verified documentation would be enough proof.
And, an educational book is an educational book, and you're an amazing writer. I'm sure a lot of schools would be willing :)
But I understand your concern with expanding your business... I'm sorry, I didn't search any solutions for that. I'm sure there must be something though. But it will reveal your identity to the public.
One thing you can do is that, some authors who use a pen name choose to reveal themselves a few years later so many you could do that? Originally publish under a pen name and later reveal your identity? And authors especially do that for promotional purposes.
But if your name's going to be revealed eventually, I think it'd be better for you to just go with using your real identity.
Whatever you choose, I wish you all the best, okay?
You'll do great.
I know it.
