Nice to meet you

Most people I work with are self-aware enough to know something needs to change—they just might not yet see what or how. I work with adults and young adults—especially women, queer folks, and people exploring who they are and how they want to live. Curiosity is my superpower. What might be possible that you haven’t let yourself consider yet? I laugh easily and listen deeply. Mostly, I want you to feel like you can say the thing—and that when you do, someone truly gets you. You are not broken. There is nothing to fix. And you don’t have to go it alone.

Interests

I love exploring new places and cultures—across the globe or in my own backyard. I'm fascinated by languages, architecture, and design. Photography is my favorite hobby, and combining that with time in nature is bliss! Tea dates, yoga, and hiking with friends are also high on the list.
