I bring 19 years of experience and a deep belief in restorative practices. I have facilitated circles-conferences-conversations with as many as 20 people and as few as two and have supported others as they gain the skills to do the same. I understand that addressing a person’s needs related to mental and physical health, belonging and basic needs creates a safer community for everyone.

I’m drawn to this work because of the power of community. It is so important to sit together, listen deeply and talk it through while always keeping in mind that no one should be defined by their worst day.
