Amy graduated from Creighton University in 2000 as an Occupational Therapist and has worked with children and families in a variety of settings.

She founded Connecting Kidz in 2019 and is thankful for the journey that led her to discovering connected parenting for her family and devotes her life and education to helping other families and children overcome challenging behaviors to heal, learn and grow.
