I launched my career as a professional speaker and writer at the age of 18. My first paid speaking engagements were speaking with kids and teens about my personal experience with mental illness. Very quickly, that led to speaking engagements supporting parents, teachers, and other adults with how to help young people talk about mental health.
By the age of 21, I had written and published three best-selling books, recorded a TEDx Talk, keynoted for conferences of over 1,000 people, and worked with groups in organizations of up to 44,000 people, all while being a full-time undergraduate student at Duke University. In my Senior year of college, I completed certification as an authentic leadership coach.
Upon graduating from Duke in 2023 with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, I launched my own business that leverages my own experience as a Gen Zer and my understanding of intergenerational dynamics to partner with leaders and organizations to successfully bridge the communication gaps that exist in the workplace due to generational differences and values.
I have worked with organizations including Netflix, Audible, Target, Nielsen, and The U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
Most importantly, I take full responsibility and credit for encouraging the rescue of our family dog, Nash.
