Summary

Over the years, I have taught, mentored, and advocated for children, families, and adults from diverse backgrounds. Being fully present is integral to my practice, allowing listening with empathy and understanding. My self-disciplined spirit considers all situations with sincerity and integrity. Possessing a calm demeanour fosters trust, easing children's belief in themselves.
