Get to Know Me
I’m a proud Afro-Filipina, wife, and homeschooling mama of three—Baltimore-bred and fueled by cinnamon tea, bold coffee, and Jesus. I’m a writer, bibliophile, and lifelong learner with a creative heart and an AuDHD brain, deeply invested in my special interests: motherhood, homeschooling, music and the band Mint Condition (Mintheads Unite!), and the color purple.
The Mama Connect is about reconnection — to who God created you to be, to your children with grace instead of pressure, and to rhythms that honor how your brain works.
As I navigate motherhood, homeschooling, and life as an AuDHDer, I share what I’m learning — and invite you to explore what connection looks like for you, too.
