Utilizing my IIN training in integrative nutrition and Empowered to Connect training in trauma-sensitive caregiving, I empower families to implement wholistic wellness practices, including counsel on connecting relationships, wholesome nutrition, positive body movement, restorative sleep, grounding mindfulness practices, safe use of essential oils, and limiting household toxins. I also share organic gardening practices and nourishing recipes, including how to bake wholesome sourdough einkorn breads from-scratch. My goal is to empower families to cultivate natural, wholistic, healing homes that offer safe havens where their families can connect, thrive, and find joy in wellness so they can resiliently thrive together and fulfill their God-given purposes.

As a Brand Partner with YL, I empower families to take control of their health with essential oils and natural wellness products. I help people purchase and effectively use the tools they need to care for their families naturally, without harsh chemicals and toxic ingredients. From offering brain-based emotional support, to treating head stuffiness and muscle tension, to practicing healthy skin care routines, to using safe household cleaning products … I share how essential oils make wholistic wellness easier.

I assist with leadership for our team, including making decisions about how to serve adoptive, foster, and kinship care families; event planning; facilitate and lead parent and professional trainings and Bible studies; direct work with supporting families one-on-one and in group settings; and participate in mission trips to Chinese partnership orphanages to serve caregivers.

I led 7th-12th grade students to appreciate true beauty and develop their creative voices through fine arts instruction utilizing my originally-developed curriculum. I also planned and executed the annual student art exhibition. Additionally, as one of the school photographers, I documented the school's incredible story, and I had the humbling honor of sharing that story through the yearbook publication. In other roles, I designed and taught music appreciation curricula, guided upper school students through the college counseling journey, and served as the social media director, computer/technology teacher, and french teacher.

I directed an independent Biblically-inspired classical homeschooling cooperative community. My responsibilities included managing class schedules and parent assignments, creating and implementing curricula, tutoring students of all ages pre-k through upper school in memory work of all subjects, teaching art and music appreciation classes, leading small group literature discussions in the Socratic style, and designing end-of-year programs. I also mentored dozens of homeschooling parents in their journeys.
