Well this is a surprise and an honor! I’m determined to help parents, caregivers and children who struggle just like my family has. My mission is to make a difference. If you are a parent who is struggling, or if you have children who need support, reach out. I would be honored to support you.

Libraries offer so many programs for children and adults in our communities. Like so many books in the library, my books are written to entertain your child and teach them important lessons to help them regulate their big emotions. Support your library!

March is Music in Our Schools Month, and this year's theme is "United Through Music!" 🎶🎷
There are so many ways you can use music to interact with your child. Utilizing music, art, and any of my "I Am" books is a great way to connect with your child and teach them calming techniques.

Us vs them mentality is not how we live in America. Everyone is welcome here is what our country was built on or was supposed to be. That is why the Statue of Liberty stands. Our history is out of many one. The divisiveness, hatred, superiority, inhumanity is not how we want to live. Love will win.
