It includes frameworks and prompts from the session, along with a Further Reading list and other resources.

Scroll down for ways to work together; I’d love to connect!

EXTRA: My sister is a sought-after choral director whose popular “Choir Is Family” account offers tips, resources, and more to build skills + resilience among choir students. I’d be remiss if I didn’t tell you! Give her a follow here.

Work with Me:

BOOK a Keynote or Workshop

My virtual and in-person talks help audiences transform how they see their biggest challenges and opportunities (SXSW, US Conference of Mayors, corp events, state agencies). I help educators and arts leaders think bigger about their work — offering science-backed frameworks they can implement right away. Attendees describe presentations as "riveting," "compelling," "downright beautiful."

get Consulting, RESEARCH, OR ADVISORY SUPPORT

I work with organizations across the globe — from universities and hospitals to startups and arts orgs to tech companies and government agencies — to reimagine their work and accelerate growth.

Whether identifying and enhancing health impacts, finding unique ways to measure outcomes, or building collabs that spark growth, we combine science and creativity to move vision into action.

ABOUT…

As a behavioral scientist, I study what makes people tick, what gets them stuck, and what drives real change.

As an artist, I know that creativity isn't just about making things. It’s about seeing possibilities that others miss.

As both, I help people re-see their work and its potential… so they can grow their impact and ignite change.
