About Your Tech Coach

I am a trauma-informed experienced parent of 7 with 25 years of Sr. level tech skills that can help you unpack the layers of technology so that you have a better understanding why parents struggle with tech boundaries and how youth are bypassing the parent controls.  Parents are overwhelmed and technology is developing at a faster rate than ever before. Children approach technology with curiosity and are getting caught in the net. They are suffering behind the screens. I have help many parents implement my strategies to set the right boundaries for their family and be more purposeful with technology.
