Hiya! We’re Shannon and Louie (and our tiny sidekick, Benny), and we’ve built our life with intention, curiosity, and loving connection. Louie is an emergency physician and lifelong educator; Shannon runs a mental health clinic and teaches theatre.
We’re playful and adventurous––traveling, camping in our solar-powered teardrop, boating on our lake––but just as much we treasure slow mornings, bedtime stories, and everyday wonder. Our home is warm, playful, and deeply supportive, surrounded by grandparents, cousins, and a big “Framily” who show up with love, laughter, and matching pajamas.
We believe deeply in open adoption. We will honor you with honesty, respect, and ongoing connection in whatever way feels right to you, now and over time.
We’ve created the space in our lives to be present, engaged parents, and promise a childhood rooted in love, curiosity, and belonging. Thank you for considering us––we’re excited, open-hearted, and ready to listen.
