CEO/Founder
Raising Harts was created on behalf of my twin boys, Keaton & Grady, and their sister, Isla. When the pandemic hit, like everyone else, the boys' usual activities, social engagements, and therapies were stripped away and their routines were drastically changed. During that time, we as a family struggled with isolation, and our need for community grew. It became my mission to create safe experiences where they can just be kids and I could just be Mom. One thing I know is that when special needs parents combine their powers, we are unstoppable.
