You’re in the right place.

Who I Serve
Professionals stuck between stagnation and potential—hungry to express more of who they are and innovate in their worlds. If you’re craving more creativity, clarity, and joy—both inside and outside of work—you belong her.
What I Offer
A playful, human-centered approach to innovation
Tools and frameworks to turn early-stage ideas into action
Supportive spaces like The Hatchery for experimentation, accountability, and growth
When I’m not building computer science programs for students and teachers and creating innovative programs for professionals to spark an affair with creativity I can be found taking photos, doing art, and dancing. I spend a lot of time with my equally geeky and techie husband thinking about big problems that can change the way the world works. At times you may even find me breaking out jingles and slogans from the 80s based on the conversation at hand.
