Personal profile
About
On individual, social, and structural levels, I integrate research, theory, and practice to support the development of children and families with diverse experiences. Within an intersectional framework, I focus on the role of religion and religious and spiritual development (broadly defined) as a way of knowing and being and as a cultural funds of knowledge. I seek to strengthen home-to-school connections by supporting the professionals and caregivers working with children.
