Gathering the pieces of belonging.
I didn't arrive to this work through theory. I arrived through experience — my own, and through years of sitting with people navigating identity, transition, and the quiet question of where they belong.
My work sits at the intersection of nervous system regulation, belonging, identity, trauma-informed care, and reflective integration. After years of working across humanitarian settings, higher education, restorative justice, and organizational leadership, I became increasingly interested in how people heal not only cognitively, but also relationally and somatically.
A Path Carved by Purpose
Roots in Social Work
My background is in social work, global development, and restorative practice. I've spent years working at the intersection of trauma, identity, systems, and human connection, supporting individuals and communities through complex transitions.
This includes experience across the United States and internationally, including work in conflict-affected settings with organizations such as the United Nations and World Bank.
"What allows people to feel safe enough to be fully human with themselves and each other?"
The personal 'why'
There wasn't one single moment that led me here. It was a growing awareness, over time, of how much people carry beneath the surface, and how few spaces exist to truly hold that with care.
