Great to Meet You!
I am an artist, writer, and the founder of a Connecticut-based nonprofit organization called Look for the Good Project, Inc.
I hold a dual degree in biological sciences and philosophy from Smith College, with additional undergraduate and graduate training in illustration, graphic design, and art education.
I've created a large array of playful books and videos designed to empower myself, my family, and those who interact with my content. I hope my cartoons and concepts encourage you. Creating them helped me comfort my inner child, and also connect with the school communities I work with.
Even though I write about emotions and the nervous system, it's important to note that I am not a therapist. My research on the topic began 25 years ago when I started studying with Ruth Robins - a counselor 50 years my senior who later became my godmother. Ruth was mentored by award-winning psychiatrist Dr. Thomas Hora, whose work also influenced my development. Since I an not a mental health professional, please understand the limitations of my work and seek professional help if you need it.
FUN FACT: I designed this scarf, which was part of a national fundraising campaign with W by Worth Clothing Line. It is covered with a selection of community-generated gratitude which I had collected from the public.

As a trauma survivor, I've created a large array of playful books and videos designed to empower myself, my family, and those who interact with my content. I hope my concepts help you as much as they've helped me. Creating them helped me comfort my inner child, which was the the part of me that was in need of the most love and care.
