OUR TEAM
As the great Gabor Maté explained: "Any healing work we do is an extension of healing our own wounds - 'The Wounded Healer' ". This project initially felt like a curiosity to understand the lives of the street community and turned into a personal journey to look at and transform the shame and isolation that I held my story with. For the past 4 years I've learned that the deeper we go into our own experience the more we learn about the collective experience, our common humanity.
I have a Masters in Strategic Leadership, I've worked in the non-profit industry for over 10 years and I am continuously on a journey of learning and healing. If you feel drawn to take part in this project or have any other ways you think we could work to make the world a better place, I want to hear from you. With love!

Armed with a degree in sociology and media, and a lifelong love of storytelling, I’m grateful for the opportunity to coordinate initiatives and connect communities through The Existence Project. I believe in the power of empathy to build a better world, and am excited by the potential for creative online media to tell the stories that need to be told. Since starting out with the organization, I’ve been constantly amazed at the new directions this work takes us and I look forward to continuing to grow alongside the Project.
