Jayme Younger
Chief Operations Officer
Brief info
In 2015, Jayme and another parent introduced a mindfulness program to a Los Angeles elementary school, which grew into the affiliated middle and high schools. This was done in parallel with his 25-year career in advertising as a director of technology/operations. These two paths were a reflection of his degrees in Sociology and Management Information Systems. In 1986, Jayme began learning the benefits of yoga and meditation and how the two helped him carve his path with intent. He later recognized that bringing mindfulness skills to children would help them enter some of life’s challenges with valuable adeptness. This led him into working with underprivileged teens, which led him to seeking how to bring these awareness skills into prisons, which led him to Fritzi and the Compassion Prison Project.
