With sound, music, nature, and other expressive arts modalities, I aim to facilitate care, acceptance, creativity, and holistic well-being to foster sustainable teaching practices.
I am a queer, neurodivergent individual, and trauma and culturally responsive professional who celebrates pluralities of learning and communication styles.
I am conscious of intersectional systems of oppression and dedicated to undermining and abolishing them however I can.
I value environmental sustainability and being connected to the earth and universe.
I center fun, leisure, and joy in the making, learning, and healing practice.
Healing is not a process that results in an end goal, but a practice, a way of being that must be cultivated and adapted as we grow.
I welcome educators, wherever they are on their journey, to join me in this practice.
