Grounded in care.
Lifted by love.
good to meet you.
about me:
I’m honored to support families through the wild, beautiful, and ever-evolving journey of parenting.
I’m a parent of two teenagers—one biological and one bonus child in our blended family—and I find parenting to be both joyful and humbling, full of endless opportunities to learn and grow.
Born and raised in Oakland, I bring the richness of my mixed, queer, and middle-aged experience to my work and my relationships. Humor and gratitude are my anchors, helping me stay grounded and open-hearted.
In our coaching together, you’ll find that I listen deeply, care genuinely, and balance knowledge with curiosity. I’ll guide you through reflection, inquiry, and practical tools—always as your teammate and ally.
I’ve spent more than 20 years working with children and families as a teacher, early reading interventionist, and Montessori school administrator. Still, my greatest lessons come from parenting my own two wonderfully spirited teenagers.
