Ethical tensions often emerge where care, policy, and justice intersect. I support individuals and organizations in navigating those tensions through reflective, applied ethics—centering community, relational accountability, and practical next steps.

​

My practice is grounded in a robust foundation of formal and contemplative training. I draw on my Bioethics Certificate from the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics, alongside graduate work in Gender Studies, Counselling Psychology, and Public Health, and certification in Contemplative End-of-Life Care from the Institute of Traditional Medicine. This interdisciplinary background allows me to bridge theory and practice, offering nuanced, culturally responsive ethics consultation that honours both institutional requirements and lived realities.

​

I integrate frameworks from feminist ethics of care, relational ethics, Indigenous data sovereignty and governance (OCAP®, CARE Principles), and public health ethics—paired with concrete, immediately usable tools. My goal is to make ethical reflection not only rigorous but restorative, helping teams move from uncertainty toward values-aligned action.
