A person-centered approach with a foundation of intentional grace.

I am committed to authenticity, amplifying voices, and fostering genuine connections. My work supports individuals with the knowledge and skills to become the best version of themselves while navigating coercive systems. I equip people to act with greater intention and guide organizations in creating inclusive, uplifting environments. I help others understand the impact of working alongside those facing injustice to diminish harm.

I believe in the power of personal narratives to promote authenticity, dispel myths, and reject shame. For more than twenty years, I’ve worked in the non-profit sector, advocating with youth, families, and people who’ve experienced violence and for reproductive justice. My focus remains on empowerment and transformation, ensuring our communities thrive.

I embody the spirit of Sojourner Truth, carry forward the legacy of the griot, and work relentlessly toward justice and equity. My goal is to build a legacy deeply rooted in my communities that honors my ancestors and makes my son, Gabriel, and bonus kid, Kayla, proud.
