Coach Bio:

At Grit N Grow Kidz Academy, we empower every child’s journey from beginning to breakthrough, helping them grow with grit, overcome challenges, and unleash their inner superhero!

I have always had a deep passion for children—whether it’s educating them about entrepreneurship, teaching emotional regulation, or simply embracing the joy of my playful inner child alongside them. Becoming a parent took this passion to new heights.

As a mother of two, my journey has deepened my commitment to creating impactful educational experiences. Parenting has been a transformative process, revealing so much about myself and inspiring me to share the knowledge I wish I had at their age.

By blending fun, interactive methods with essential life skills, I make sure learning is not only informative but also exciting and enjoyable! My vision for Grit N Grow Kidz is to create a Ripple Affexx of positivity, helping children cultivate their dreams and become the next-generation leaders of tomorrow.

Having faced challenges in my own childhood, I know how different my life could have been if I had learned the skills I now possess. While I don’t regret those challenges, as they shaped who I am today, I believe that having the right tools from an early age would have made those challenges more manageable. The world today is vastly different from the one I grew up in, and I believe this next generation needs the life skills I’m teaching now more than ever.

I am dedicated to inspiring the next generation to ignite their spark and help them make their mark on the world. With over 20 years of experience nurturing creativity and business acumen, I believe every child has the potential for greatness. I’m excited to help each child unleash the superpower within them!

When I’m not mentoring young minds, you can find me enjoying quality time with my family (especially swimming and outdoor activities), cuddling with my cats, crafting, or playing pickleball and NERTZ! I love brainstorming new ideas and developing exciting initiatives to support the aspiring Grit N Grow Kidz!

At Grit N Grow Kidz Academy, we believe in empowering every child’s personal journey, from beginning to breakthrough. It’s more than just a class—it’s a place where grit, growth, and meaningful connections help children overcome fear, rise above challenges, and unleash their superhero power with grit and growth.
