How I tend to show up
I've been described as warm, more calm than energetic, as prioritizing my client's worldview and experience, and having high capacity to hold space for others' emotions. I'm interested in hearing your story, joining you where you're at, and am focused on collaborative exploration rather than being directive.
My work is grounded in anti-racism, disability justice, the belief that we are all vital in our communities, and that tuning in to our natural selves can bring out solutions aligned with who we uniquely are.
