Favorite Things
Who doesn’t love finding themselves in spaces brimming with creativity and connection? Personally, that’s one of my favorite feelings—that magic of meaningful human connection. The power of connection is one of my passions, and when I reflect, I realize it always has been.
From loving team sports to choreographing Spice Girls dances with friends, into years of leading in-person groups and more recently, gathering people through online platforms, I’ve come to know that cultivating community is my jam.
The internet has plenty of noise, negativity, and chaos, so I believe in carving out little pockets of light—spaces where we can feel connected and valued, and be reminded of the good in the world. This life moves fast, and technology seems to move even quicker so I want to make the most of both—savoring, celebrating, connecting, and creating little corners of the internet that feel like home.
