I have been in this space long enough to have developed big Wonder Woman muscles from pushing and pushing, and meticulously, tirelessly planting seeds that I now witness growing into Best Practices and meaningful change initiatives adopted by companies and organizations across the globe.

 

Through it all I have come to know that this work is not for the faint of heart…this is true culture-warrior work, that will invariably leave lasting impressions on the people, places, and systems it touches.

I work with people and organizations to create safe and sacred spaces - pregnant spaces where difficult but necessary conversations are cultivated, and an inclusively just world for everyone is birthed.
