The Village
It takes a village
Childcare, money, safety, and inclusive care, with a focus on the Triangle and North Carolina. The people and places that hold a family up!
Childcare
Where I learned what care looks like
Triumphant Kids
My mom's in-home daycare, Durham, NC
My mom's in-home daycare has been open for about 15 years, and I've been helping out for as long as I can remember. Along the way I tutor K-5 and high school students in chemistry, calculus, and biology, with an average 10-point test score increase.

Campus founder
Students Who Sit started at Duke as a campus childcare marketplace, connecting verified college students with families who need a sitter. I launched the UNC chapter from the ground up and lead a team of ambassadors across outreach, research, and campus partnerships.

My mothers and me
To my mothers, with love
The women who raised me show me what motherhood looks like at its best. This is a living letter to them, and I add a note every time they remind me!
