Hello on this March day in Maine💛

🌿 My Philosophy
Equity is at the heart of everything I do. Every child—no matter their background, identity, or ability deserves tools to support emotional well-being.

I blend neuroscience, mindfulness, and play to create experiences that awaken the body’s natural ability to regulate and restore balance. Emotional regulation isn’t a goal to chase; it’s a gentle practice we return to with curiosity and kindness, again and again.

💛 How I Work
I collaborate with educators, parents, researchers, and social workers to co-create heart-centered, evidence-informed resources that empower children and caregivers in daily life. My approach is grounded in lived experience, science, and the wisdom of children themselves.

🌸 Outside Roots Up
When I’m not teaching or creating, you’ll find me in nature with my family, practicing yoga, dancing, playing pickleball, or juggling a hundred things at once… and still forgetting why I walked into the kitchen. 🎉
