Honest, practical, and written from the messy middle, not the highlight reel.

From teen mom at 16 to PhD and professor, still leveling up at 41.

My story didn't start perfectly. I became a mom at 16 and had to figure out how to build a life, education, career, and finances, all while navigating the reality of growing up at the same time. Now, 25 years later, I'm still in the thick of mom life on both ends. I'm watching my oldest daughter navigate adulthood at 25 and cheering her on through every twist and turn, while also packing dance competition bags and helping my 9-year-old with homework on the other side.

Today, I'm an assistant professor, course developer, and a proud dance mom. I've learned how to create structure, stay disciplined, and keep moving forward, even when life feels messy.

I don't have it all figured out. But I've committed to becoming better every day and bringing other moms along with me.
