Who we are

Cathleen Antoine-Abiala

Founder | Educator | Learning Architect Rooted in Culture & Justice

I design learning experiences, curricula, and cultural tools that reclaim education as a space for healing, memory, and transformation. Through Sajes Ed, I support educators, institutions, and communities in building restorative, culturally grounded ecosystems that honor identity and legacy while driving meaningful change.

Guided by story, informed by structure, and committed to liberation, my work invites people to reimagine what learning can look and feel like when rooted in justice, care, and ancestral wisdom.

Let’s build learning systems that don’t just inform—but restore, connect, and liberate.

“To tell our own stories is one of the greatest honors we have, and we should seek to share them so that we may enrich one another.”
