I am a Health Educator with experience in school health leadership, community-level health promotion, service learning and teaching. My work focuses on community-engaged and school-based collaboration for communities to promote health-sustaining environments and to foster children’s healthy growth and development—intellectually, socially, emotionally and physically:
- Recess researcher and advocate; founding member of Global Recess Alliance
- Co-author of the American Academy of Pediatrics Policy on Recess
- Leader of Participatory Action Research with a local elementary school to promote health through the Coordinated School Health model
Through these experiences, I learned first-hand the power of locally-driven, collaborative action, and in July of 2015, I founded Successful Healthy Children with a vision to be a champion for school health and wellness in elementary schools, advocating for recess for every child everyday and promoting children’s health and success in schools.
