Welcome
I’m delighted you’re here. Together, we’ll embark on a journey of transformation that ripples outward to touch lives, communities, and organizations.
My Approach
As an educational leader, mindbody practitioner, and wellness coach, I integrate evidence-based practices with deep intuitive understanding. My approach is a holistic tapestry that weaves wellness, leadership, and emotional regulation together to create lasting positive change in each individual and positively influence the lives of those they touch.
Expertise & Experience
My professional foundation is built on interconnected disciplines that support whole-person growth and alignment, working with both adults and children. I fundamentally believe that each individual possesses an innate capacity to move toward their goals and optimal wellbeing, with the potential to create a positive ripple effect of wholeness, wellness, and emotional regulation across families, communities, and schools.
I synthesize high-impact instructional and professional learning strategies with:
- Emotional Regulation and Co-Regulation: Techniques that help individuals understand and manage their emotional states and the influence on others
- Evidence-Based Practices: Approaches grounded in rigorous research and proven methodologies in professional learning, integrative wellness coaching, instructions, Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), and more
- Systemic Improvement: A genuine curiosity about evolving our educational and wellness systems for future generations
Professional Journey
My professional path is a rich tapestry of leadership, education, parenting, and holistic wellness. As a Nationally Certified Mentor Trainer and Coach with NAESP, I’ve dedicated my career to transforming educational landscapes and supporting educators and students alike. My work as a Certified Integrative Wellness Coach allows me to bridge traditional educational approaches with innovative, compassionate leadership strategies. As a PhD student and researcher in Mindbody Medicine, I consistently practice and integrate learnings into all services.
Throughout my professional life, I’ve developed a deep expertise in supporting diverse learning needs, with a particular focus on students navigating ADHD, anxiety, neurodiversity, sensory challenges, and learning difficulties. My approach is rooted in a comprehensive understanding of educational leadership, mind-body medicine, and applied behavior analysis. This unique blend of skills enables me to work effectively with underperforming school systems, providing targeted support that addresses both teacher wellness, systemic challenges and, and increasingly diverse individual student needs.
My professional toolkit spans multiple disciplines, including highly effective teaching and literacy instruction, mindful leadership, and evidence-based therapeutic approaches. Whether working with individual students, coaching educators, or consulting with school leadership, I bring a holistic, compassionate approach that recognizes the potential within each learner and each educational system.
By bridging these disciplines, I remain committed to fostering growth, understanding, and transformative change in education and personal wellness.
