As a single mom, my goal is to raise a great human; through love, intentional experiences, and meaningful exposure.

Watching her become. There’s something quietly profound about raising a daughter; seeing her develop her own way of seeing the world, her own sense of style, her own opinions. The most rewarding part isn’t the big moments. It’s the everyday evidence that she’s paying attention, that she’s curious, that she’s becoming someone I genuinely admire. Raising a good human is the most meaningful thing I’ll ever do.
What is the biggest lesson motherhood has taught you?That presence is the most important thing you can offer. Not perfection, not having all the answers but just showing up fully, consistently, and with intention. Motherhood taught me to stop waiting until everything is ready and to build the life I want her to see modeled. She’s my biggest reason and my clearest mirror.
What would you do with $20,000?I’d split it between two things that matter most right now. Half would go toward my brand, S Squared; a beauty/essentials brand born from watching my daughter fall in love with beauty the same way I did as a little girl. She gave me inspiration to tap back into me fully for her. The other half would go toward her future; investing in her schooling, plus the activities she loves: dance, gymnastics and more. $20,000 would give both of our dreams real momentum.
