## About

My son TJ died at 36.5 weeks. Nine years later, I'm a Certified Grief Coach (Microdose Method™) and former support group facilitator with Return to Zero: HOPE — and I still carry 20 years in corporate sales and marketing leadership, because that's the world I had to grieve inside of.

I coach parents navigating stillbirth and infant loss through what actually happens after: the body, the calendar, the people who don't know what to say. And I work with HR leaders to redesign bereavement policy that goes silent exactly where pregnancy and infant loss should be named.

Co-founder/board, PUSH for Empowered Pregnancy (stillbirth prevention). W.I.L.D. Intensive cohort, SOW Leadership Development Institute. Available to speak on stillbirth, grief at work, and inclusive bereavement policy.

Not contagious. Not fragile. Grieving.

  A 45-minute space to talk about your loss without managing anyone else's reaction to it. I'm a Certified Grief Coach (Microdose Method™) who lost my son TJ at 36.5 weeks — I'm not here to fix your grief or rush you toward acceptance.

Let's start wherever you are.
