If you have kids or know “kids these days,” you’ve developed a perspective about Social Media.
“They love it! They are so creative and making such interesting connections!”
“I don’t get it, we used to just go outside and play!”
“I wish there was a better balance, a place that wasn’t so toxic, but its clearly something they want to do!”
As a child psychiatrist with over two decades of experience in healthcare leadership, a Cornell-educated expert, and the founder and driving force behind In KidZ, a pioneering EdTech company that champions multicultural education and emotional wellness for children, my mission is deeply personal and professional. As a devoted mother and child expert, I believe in empowering and guiding the next generation through authentic engagement. My diverse experience allows me to have a dynamic and holistic approach to mental health and wellness advocacy.
My dream is to create a future with our kids rather than for them by ensuring that their voices and perspectives are heard and reflected in the world they live in. I stand as a formidable advocate, counselor, and ally, championing a future where every child's voice is not only heard but amplified, guaranteeing their potential and voice are realized to the fullest.
Currently, I'm deeply involved with the 'Listen to the KidZ' movement, where we focus on ensuring that the voices of our youth are heard and respected. We're actively developing a comprehensive curriculum for schools, athletics, and adults in the US and beyond that covers crucial topics like Mental Health (MESH Learning), Empowerment, Digital Literacy, Future Financial Mindset, and Acceptance and Belonging.
