The way we speak to each other can move us more deeply than anything else in the world.
Hi there, I'm Monica! I'm the founder of Evolving By Design, home to creative transformation.
I provide meaningful person-centered activities by combining social-emotional work with creative sessions for neurodiverse individuals with big goals.
Having creative and personal challenges shape my life, I’ve discovered a deep passion for guiding others to explore their unique gifts & natural strengths. I now design innovative experiences teaching others how creativity enhances how we experience life.
