MY JOURNEY

My practice began in pediatric hospitals, supporting infants recovering from illness and working closely with the families whose resilience shaped so much of my path.

Science gave me the tools to deeply understand the developing brain, but experience taught me that knowledge isn’t enough on its own. Each body learns in its own ways; every one has their own, unique blueprint. Over time, it became obvious that data without empathy is incomplete; They work best together. The real picture becomes clear when we are willing to hold both at once.

I started connecting with mentors, researchers, and community leaders who were seeking answers to the same questions I was:

How do we curate a practice of care that truly connects us ?

That search led me beyond the hospital, into neighborhoods, faith communities, refugee families, and creative spaces.

Healing has many doors, and I wish to share my journey with as many families as I can so we can all grow and heal together.
