Just wrapped up an incredible week in Palm Springs🌴☀️ at the BOOST Conference 2026. I had the chance to be in community with nearly 3,500 like‑minded educators from across the Out‑of‑School Time and Expanded Learning field — all of us seeking rejuvenation, resources, and deeper engagement as we take our practice to the next level.

The week was full of learning, connection, and inspiration. I got to hear from experts in professional development, storytelling, leadership, and so much more. It was the kind of experience that fills your cup and reminds you why this work matters. 🙌🏾⚡️

Feeling grateful, energized, and ready to bring these insights back to the communities we serve. 💫

If you’ve ever been to BOOST(BOOST Collaborative), you know it’s one of the most energizing spaces for leaders and professionals in youth development, education, and expanded learning. And if you haven’t, imagine a gathering where thousands of passionate changemakers come together to learn, connect, recharge, and push our field forward.

The inspiration, the community, the professional growth—it’s truly unmatched✨

My colleagues and members of my team will also be attending, and we’re all looking forward to taking in the newest learning, updates, and experiences the conference has to offer.🌸

I’d love to know if you or your team are planning to attend this year. It would be great to connect in person and share the experience together.

Today is a 👓 type of day 😝

As you move throughout the day please remember this quote…

It’s okay to be affected by something you thought you healed from. Healing is not linear. Be gentle with yourself. 💚

I’m grateful to have been part of the second annual Mentors Need Love Too event as both a panelist and a guest performance poet, presented by the Golden State Valkyries, 2K, and MENTOR California.

Over the weekend, I had the honor of sitting in conversation with Lillian Samuel of Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Bay Area and Ana Mettola of 2K. Together, we shared stories, lessons, and lived wisdom about what it means to mentor — to show up for young people, to support their growth, and to lead with intention in our communities.

A special thank you to Veronne J. Clark, MPS , Marcus Strother and the 2K team for inviting me to represent the Golden State Valkyries as the inaugural Honorary Mentor for the organization🙌🏾✨.

I don’t take that recognition lightly, and I’m proud to stand in community with those who believe in the power of mentorship.
