Critical pedagogy. 
Based in research.
driven by curiosity.
committed to equity.

My work bridges educational philosophy with neuroscience, psychology, and inclusive practice. Drawing from research in human development, disability studies, and the principles of Waldorf education, I explore how learning environments can support both cognitive growth and emotional well-being. I integrate the study of mindfulness, holistic education, and critical pedagogy to examine how systems can become more humane, responsive, effective and equitable. Based in research and shaped by professional experience, my writing is guided by curiosity, compassion, and a deep commitment to educational integrity.

Language education is one branch within my wider educational work. As a TESOL educator, I approach language as a skill and tool to bring autonomy, cultural connection and integration, and confidence. My practice emphasizes relational learning, real-world application, and the belief that all learners deserve spaces where they feel seen, heard and can take ownership of their education.
