Working with children, families, and schools has been my passion in my professional career. I believe in order to have a better community, state, country & world, we need to ensure we are teaching children skills that will benefit them for a lifetime, starting with self-advocacy, self-regulation, self-awareness and self-compassion. Throughout my professional career, I have seen first-hand how this benefits children which then penetrates through the community for generations to come, truly transforming our world to a kinder, more compassionate place.
