Learning that sticks—at every level.
Whether you’re leading a team, running a program, or hosting a retreat, I design and facilitate learning experiences that engage, empower, and deliver lasting impact.
Facilitation, training, and custom design—tailored to your people and purpose.
In addition to my work with educators through Beyond the Lecture, I also consult with public health teams, nonprofits, foundations, and mission-driven organizations to create and deliver high-impact learning experiences.
This isn’t “off-the-shelf” training. Every engagement is grounded in strategy, science, and care—and customized to meet the needs of your team, mission, and context.

Simulation-Based Learning Experiences
As a certified facilitator in two nationally recognized learning simulations, I offer immersive workshops that help teams explore equity, systems, thinking, leadership, and decision-making.
Making Change™
This simulation drops participants into the often messy, unpredictable experience of driving change — from inside a system that resists it.
Each participant takes on a fictional role within a team responsible for change management. They must navigate conflicting priorities, limited resources, and complex power dynamics to move a change initiative forward. The result? A visceral, team-based understanding of what real change actually demands — and why so many good ideas stall.
This simulation is ideal for:
Leadership teams navigating internal or cultural transformation
Organizations seeking a deeper understanding of equity in context
Staff preparing to lead change at any level of an organization
Outcomes include:
Greater empathy for the emotional and political dynamics of change
Shared language to describe resistance, momentum, and complexity
Practical insights that strengthen team readiness and collaboration
Facilitated under certification from Cairn Guidance. Used with permission.
Systems Thinking, Systems Changing™
A powerful simulation that helps participants experience how decisions — even well-intentioned ones — play out across complex systems.
Participants take on fictional roles within a simulated community to navigate a series of real-world challenges related to equity, access, and power. Through interactive decision-making, they see how systemic patterns reinforce inequality — and explore what it takes to shift them.
This simulation is ideal for:
Coalitions working across sectors
Public health or education teams focused on systems change
Coalitions and collaboratives launching systems-change work
Outcomes include:
Clearer understanding of how individual actions and policies ripple through a system
Deeper insight into structural barriers and decision-making under pressure
Shared language and experience to support collective strategy
Facilitated under certification from Cairn Guidance. Used with permission.
