About Pixel Parenting

Hi, I'm Patricia.

I'm a tech leader turned digital parenting educator, the host of the Pixel Parenting podcast, a mom of two, and a gamer. I created Pixel Parenting because I was tired of advice that swung between fear and denial.

I hold an M.S. in Educational Studies (Mind, Brain & Teaching) and I'm currently conducting independent research on how families navigate AI.

Parenting in the digital age doesn't have to feel this hard.
