What I'm looking for
I am a certified mindfulness coach and trainer with over a decade of experience designing and delivering trauma-sensitive, evidence-informed wellness programs for youth, adults, families, and organizations. I have led curriculum development for first responders, co-founded a mindfulness practice offering remote and in-person workshops, and managed evaluation and outreach to strengthen community mental health and prevent substance abuse.
I combine project management, grantwriting, and public education skills with proficiency in virtual delivery tools to create participant-centered materials and measurable program improvements. My work emphasizes emotional regulation, resilience-building, and accessible resources to reduce burnout and increase well-being across diverse communities.
