Creating thriving workplaces starts with resilient leaders, and I’m truly passionate about enhancing wellbeing in the workplace through science-based coaching and consulting! My mission is to lead workshops designed to boost employee happiness and job satisfaction all while nurturing positive workplace relationships. With my Doctorate in Organizational Innovation, I’m excited to use my expertise to drive impactful change and roll out dynamic, engaging initiatives. Honestly, I never envisioned my career would take this wonderful turn!

 

My journey began as a Chiropractic Physician, where I embraced a holistic approach to health. This experience ignited my passion for education, leading me to earn a Master's degree in Education with a focus on cross-cultural communication. As a science teacher, I became deeply aware of the unique challenges faced by neurodiverse students, which fueled my dedication to developing inclusive educational initiatives. After spending 15 enriching years in the classroom, I gained valuable insights into the needs of young people adapting to our rapidly changing world. Many of these bright individuals are now stepping into the workforce, bringing with them diverse learning and communication styles. Throughout this time, I've balanced the joys and challenges of being a mother and have navigated my own workplace hurdles, all while remaining committed to learning about wellbeing, the science of happiness, and fostering creativity in my students.

 

As the Senior Program Director at STEM4Real, a fantastic non-profit organization, I made strides in educational policy and practice by promoting the integration of mindfulness and stress-management strategies within schools. I had the pleasure of working alongside dedicated, multi-generational educators to critically evaluate our systems and seek solutions for better access to high-quality STEM education. During this phase of my journey, I prioritized personal reflection and growth while exploring my spiritual path. I’m certified in mindfulness meditation by respected teachers like Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach and currently have the privilege of serving as the Chief Well-Being Officer at the World Happiness Academy. In this role, I advocate for initiatives that uplift both individual and collective wellbeing.

 

My ongoing research into mindfulness and meditation enriches the workshops I design, empowering educators to foster supportive environments. I am wholeheartedly committed to shaping a future where everyone feels valued and energized to chase their passions. My team and I are eager to collaborate with you to promote wellbeing and happiness in the workplace. I can’t wait to meet you and work together to harmonize our hearts and minds with your organizational goals!
