"CHILDREN AREN'T JUST OUR FUTURE...
THEY'RE A VERY VITAL PART OF OUR PRESENT."
MY MISSION
I consider myself an advocate for children. Advocacy, to me, simply means to amplify. I am here to not only amplify the *voices* of kids, but to amplify their capacity, their wisdom, and their general awesomeness.
I am passionate about shifting the social narrative from "grownups-know-best" to "kids are powerful collaborators in building the world we all wish to see." I also actively advocate for children's rights and am committed to ensuring that all children have access to the necessary resources and support to thrive. I launched my first NFT project, Every Little Step, in August 2022 and sold out, providing the funds necessary to delivery step stools to local Nashville businesses to make their space more accessible to kids.
I am currently working on building The Department of Curious Things - a multi-disciplinary creative hub for kids. You can learn more a to that project here.
WHAT I DO
I create experiences and resources for kids and their families to learn, grow, and creatively express themselves.

Here are a few of my current and past projects 👇
a camp for young creatives​
Returning Summer 2026! ​​
​
​Stories are everywhere - sometimes we write them down, sometimes we act them out, and sometimes we just imagine them in our heads. This two-day camp gives kids the space to explore storytelling in a way that feels fun and natural to them.
Through writing, art, and hands-on creativity, they'll build characters, create worlds, and share their ideas in a way that builds their confidence. With activities designed for rising 2nd-rising 6th graders, this camp is all about discovering the magic in the stories we tell.
THE STORY BOOTH
Roll the dice; tell your story!
​
Standing at 8' tall, The Story Booth is an immersive storytelling experience for folks of any age. Storytellers roll the cardboard dice and build a story out of what they see, stepping into the booth and leaving their tale as a message on the Story Phone.
HOW CAN YOU BE AN ADVOCATE?
There are so many ways to amplify kids in our world!
​
You can start by simply noticing the kids around you. Watch how they take in their environment and adapt at lightning speed. This noticing is the first step.
​
If you're in a public space and notice that there are no stepstools or short countertops in the bathrooms, ask the manager to purchase one so that kids can reach the sinks.
​
Go to a local school board meeting. These are open to the public and you may find that you have a lot to say about the school environment.
​
Do a teensy bit of research about child development. It doesn't need to be a deep dive. But learning more about kids at each stage of development can help you to know how to best support them.
​
SHOW UP consistently for the kids in your life. Whether they're your biological kids, your nieces/nephews/niblings, or your neighbor's kids - be kind and accept their invitations to play. Helping a child to feel valued, cared for, and seen is a beautiful way to advocate.
​
Contact your representatives when child-related social issues arise (it can be argued that all social issues are child-related but I digress).​
