My passion for supporting families has extended over 40 years, and I intend it to continue for many, many more. I am an author of parenting books and a multitude of articles, and have been a parent coach for many years. I’ve had the honor and privilege of connecting and working with many of you, helping each of you to create the positive and meaningful change you’ve desired. I’ve raised two lovely daughters alongside my husband, have taught preschool, co-directed an infant-toddler center, mentored daycare providers and parents, been a caregiver for many children and families through the years, taught parent education classes, led workshops, volunteered often, and feel renewed each time I get to spend time with any child who graces my life.
