Years of working with children and adults have helped me gain a wide-encompassing view of how people seek, attain, and use knowledge. There is no one right way to parent or educate, just as there is no one right way to learn.

I’ve trained as an ECE educator. I’ve worked with children of multiple ages, cultures/ethnicities, socioeconomic levels, and many different regions of the country. My training has always been child-centered, child-driven, emergent, and responsive. I also know educators’ challenges with outside requirements, influences, and developmentally inappropriate requests.

My studies of psychology and mental health expanded my understanding of how our early interactions lay a foundation for all future relationships. The incredible, complex nature of early attachment relationships can have lifelong effects on the way a person interacts with others.

More importantly, I have been incredibly lucky and privileged to have these life experiences, that I feel compelled to share this information with others. Someone who can hold space for participants to ask questions, make meaningful connections, and rephrase information can empower anyone to be a successful learner, regardless of our diverse backgrounds. I want to be that person for you!
