The Heart of My Work:
My Story and Expertise
Rooted in Connection
Facilitating a workshop on creating connection and belonging at the Schools of the Future Conference
As a GSA advisor, I supported students through initiatives funded by the It Gets Better Grant.
My work is deeply inspired by Hawaiian epistemology, which emphasizes the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. These ways of knowing honor relationships, language, and values as foundational to growth and belonging. I approach this work with humility and gratitude, recognizing the privilege of learning from teachings deeply rooted in compassion, connection, and kuleana—our shared responsibility to nurture the gifts of those around us. Through cognitive reframing and relationship-building, I create tools and strategies that transform theory into practice, fostering equity and connection in education and beyond.
Foundations of Cultures of Compassion & Belonging
These values form the foundation of the tools, workshops, and strategies I create to empower educators and inspire equitable change. They are actionable principles that guide every aspect of my work as I help build cultures of growth, belonging, and transformation.
Building empathetic, inclusive, and equitable communities where everyone can thrive
Leading with hope, kindness, and intentional practices
Harnessing the transformative power of language—writing, storytelling, and visual design—to foster connection and inspire action
Guiding with values of empathy, compassion, and radical love to create cultures of belonging
Encouraging emotional engagement that integrates mind, body, and spirit
Let’s Build Compassionate Futures Together
This work is grounded in small, intentional actions done with empathy, kindness, and love.
Listening deeply. Leading with our hearts. Being present and consistent.
These practices have the power to shift perspectives, strengthen relationships, and co-create futures filled with belonging and compassion.
When we lead with love, empathy, and kindness, we nurture futures filled with belonging and compassion.
“When we lead with love, empathy, and kindness, we nurture futures filled with belonging and compassion.”
