My Work

…as a disruptive force (for good)

I challenge the way things have always been done, not to tear them down, but to make space for what is possible. I believe disruption, when driven by purpose and compassion, can heal systems, spark creativity, and move people toward the fullest version of themselves.

…as a teacher & learner

I see teaching and learning as shared experiment in curiosity. Whether I’m designing STEM career pathways, building curriculum that connects soil health to chemistry, or investigating the nuances of purpose driven education my work is rooted in exploration in the lab, the classroom, and the world beyond school walls.

…as a facilitator

I partner with organizations like Nutrients for Life Foundation and Florida Agriculture in the Classroom to help teachers rediscover science through the lens of agriculture- where chemistry, biology, and sustainability meet in the real world. As a facilitator i lead hands on experiences that turn soil and food systems into dynamic STEM storylines. My goal is to equip educators with the tools, confidence, and curiosity to inspire the next generation of problem solvers and stewards of the land.

…as a mountain adventurer

My work in the mountains is about exploration- testing ideas, limits, and perspective. As an ultra runner and explorer, I treat wild places as both classroom and collaborator; teaching me resilience, humility, and the science of endurance. I carry these lessons into everything I do, from education to community building. Each summit, storm, and stretch of trail is a reminder that growth happens at the edge of comfort and learning is a lifelong elemental pursuit.

…as a water(wo)man

My work in the water is about connection and flow- listening to rhythm, breath, and the pull of unseen currents. As a surfer and freediver the ocean is both a teacher and a mirror, a place that demands presence and rewards surrender. Teaching adaptability, awareness, and respect for forces we can’t control; I carry these lessons with me in leadership, learning, and in life. Each dive and wave is reminder that softness and strength can coexist- two things can be true at once

…as a wife & mother

Work is not only what we do, it is an expression of who we are. Home is where my identity and purpose intertwine. It is through the shared rhythms of family life we are able to practice collaboration, compassion, and adaptability- the same qualities that guide me as an educator, facilitator, and adventurer. My work as a wife and mother is where I live the work of becoming, and not just achieving.
