I help early learning leaders go from overwhelmed to “I got this.” As a keynote speaker, bestselling author, podcast host, and third-generation entrepreneur, I’ve spent over 30 years equipping directors and early childhood professionals with the tools and clarity they need to lead with confidence and calm. I’ve personally authored or coauthored 14 books, spoken on stages nationwide, and co-founded TexasDirector.org, Director Success Academy, and the Childcare Conversations podcast — all designed to support leaders who want practical strategies, not just inspiration. Alongside my cousin and co-speaker Carrie, we’ve trained thousands of directors and published 26 books between us — while building programs that scale what works in early learning leadership. We don’t just write the books — we train the directors, coach the authors, and license the leaders. If you're planning an event, leading a team, or ready to turn the chaos into calm — let’s talk.
