About Me.

After retiring as an Education Specialist for the Federal Government,  I couldn’t ignore the pull to return where it mattered most — the classroom. As an elementary teacher, I witnessed both hopeful progress and heartbreaking shifts. While the children remained just as curious, creative, and capable, the communication and empathy between parents, teachers, and kids had begun to crack.

I saw it clearly: the world was moving fast, but families were struggling to keep up emotionally.

Drawing on my professional insights and personal journey as a divorced mother of two, I began to bridge those gaps. One conversation, one activity, and one strategy at a time — I inspired not just her students, but their families too. My work now centers on guiding parents to reconnect with their children, building trust through communication, and fostering emotional intelligence at home and in schools.

My goal isn’t just teaching parenting — I will leadi a movement to bring empathy back to the heart of every home and family.
