Facilitation

As a facilitator, I work to create a thoughtful, intentional space that allows participants to engage fully. I practice an embodied facilitation style - sometimes we need to get up and move, to breathe, to center, to ground; sometimes we need opportunities for deep discussion and reflection; we often need to experience play and laughter together. I rely on activities and processes that engage curiosity and build connection. I offer reminders for the reason we are gathered, lift up the joy and beauty we can create together, and also acknowledge healthy conflict as part of building and deepening relationships.

I collaborate with communities and organizations to create sessions that use arts-based tools to engage minds and bodies differently. I pay attention to the dynamics and energy of the space we are co-creating and strive to move at a pace that encourages trust and honesty in partnership with growth and implementation of our goals.
