I believe in the power of our adolescents, and it's why I founded the Live Big Community.

As a woman who is deeply passionate about mental health, I am certified as a Counselor with the Australian Institute of Professional Counselors, trained with the National Institute for the Psychotherapies in Child & Adolescent Development, and the Trauma Research Foundation in Traumatic Stress.

As a coach, facilitator, and speaker, I’ve worked with teams at companies like Google, Microsoft, and Merck to create skills that help them connect with people.

As a Faculty Associate of Entrepreneurship at Northwestern’s Kellogg School of Management, I taught aspiring entrepreneurs how to become leaders and bring their visions to the market.

As educators, leaders, and human beings, we have not just an opportunity, but a duty. That duty is to use all of the resources at our disposal to turn the tide on the mental health crisis and give our adolescents the opportunity to transform.

If we can help our adolescents transform, they can transform the world.
