효영 Hyoyoung Minna Kim

효영 Hyoyoung Minna Kim (she/her) is a former public school educator of eleven years. At the moment, she is a Program Coordinator and Curriculum Developer for ThinkGive, a nonprofit offering social-emotional literacy programs for K-8 around the world, and is a facilitator supporting groups in centering healthy-healing relationships and shared leadership while contextualizing collective care through the science of our nervous systems and in the context of our social systems. She approaches her work through a decolonial co-liberatory lens at the intersection of somatics, biomimicry, and pluriverse. Minna delights in experiencing the magic of children’s picture books, is a masterful dog-cuddler, and is (re)learning how to befriend our more-than-human kin.
