“As Co-Principal Investigator of the Contemplative Coping During Covid-19 at UC Davis Center for Mind and Brain, I have had the pleasure of working closely with you over these past four months to help us shift the course of our scientific research. Furthering our goal to engage in the process of research to encode as much kindness as inquiry, you have been an invaluable asset as we rethink and rework our strategies of participant recruitment, train our research team, and interact with study participants. In each of these domains your insights and guidance have been revelatory. As an esteemed colleague, you are an absolute joy to work with. Your patient humor and light touch manifest deep expertise and guidance.”

“I didn’t realize that one of the main reasons I felt so defeated when thinking about the plight of African, Latinx, and Indigenous people is that I felt small… I know now that I can give my ancestors justice through my words… Language as a conduit to liberation is going to be a lifelong devotion for me.”

“Thank you for the fantastic sessions. I really appreciate your perspective and insight.”

“I am so happy to have your prosociality framework to help me organize and reflect upon the processes I am experiencing as a mother, researcher, psychologist and human. It has really helped to empower me and to continue my journey. ”
