Growing up as part of an invisible minority, I have encountered discrimination and hardship, which have caused me to walk away from friends, family members and even my full-time career as a passionate bilingual educator, after almost 17 years in the classroom.

Through overcoming adversity, I have vowed to spend the rest of my adult life helping to shift mindsets and forging a fire of universal belonging and acceptance for all walks of life.

I am passionate, engaging, and funny, keeping audiences of any age on their toes. Thanks to my fiery nature, I will also ask questions that will make any client or audience reflect deeply, often sharing experiences and situations that will move you to tears.
