Mina (they/them) is a passionate lifelong student of creating impactful change, both individually and collectively. They have a Masters of Education in Social Justice Education and have worked with queer, trans and disabled communities for nearly a decade. Their educational background alongside their lived experience sustains their anti-oppressive practice and commitment. They believe learning is a practice of coming back to oneself and inherent knowing.

To learn is to be alive in our unique experience, exploring new ways of being and relating to one another. Mina approaches learning through their insightful compassionate curiosity, with gentle boundaries to find practical, creative accommodations for growth and transformative learning. Integrating the whole self without shame reveals what makes us all beautifully complex and connected with feelings, movement, play and creation as a necessary life force.
