Contemplative educator growing communities of care, connection and contentment
As a practitioner at the intersection of inner transformation and systems change, I believe in nurturing the heart of compassion to realize a flourishing world for all.
For over a decade, I've lived and worked in the Himalayan Kingdom of Bhutan, seeking to embody its wisdom and serve its holistic philosophy of Gross National Happiness through contemplative education.
I am currently the Global Implementation Director at the Contentment Foundation, where I work to grow communities of care, connection and contentment through schools in Bhutan and around the world.
I've served as a researcher, trainer, and strategist for the United Nations and Royal Government of Bhutan. I'm also a Dalai Lama Fellow and inner leadership coach.
I am animated by the work of advancing human development, restorative justice, social connection, mental health, emotional wellbeing, spiritual life, and planetary regeneration.
