Founder story

Why this exists

I'm a product leader, entrepreneur, and co-parent passionate about creating more supportive, human-centered tools for families navigating separation, conflict, and the everyday challenges of co-parenting.

Like many parents, I've experienced firsthand how emotionally exhausting co-parent communication can become, especially when important decisions, schedules, finances, and parenting responsibilities are layered with stress and conflict. Over time, I realized there was a major gap between the tools families actually needed and the tools currently available.

That realization led me to create Coparent Companion, a platform designed to help co-parents communicate more clearly, stay organized, reduce escalation, and focus more consistently on the wellbeing of their children.

My background combines years of experience in product management, digital platforms, customer experience, and systems design with a deeply personal understanding of the realities many co-parents face every day. I've worked across both startup and enterprise environments helping teams build thoughtful, scalable products, and now I'm applying that experience toward building tools that can genuinely improve family communication and reduce unnecessary conflict.

I believe technology can help co-parents become more confident, effective communicators through compassionate coaching, clearer expectations, and tools designed to reduce conflict rather than intensify it.

My goal is not simply to build software, but to help create more supportive systems for parents, children, and the professionals who support them.

Today, I'm focused on growing Coparent Companion alongside family law, mediation, and mental health professionals who care deeply about helping families navigate difficult transitions with greater clarity, accountability, and empathy.
