Though the journey with my body & health has been marked with significant challenges, it has led me through profound lessons and great discoveries — ones that I am deeply grateful for. I was diagnosed with Growth Hormone Deficiency at 11 years old and even after taking daily injections for a few years I still stand at just 5 feet tall, but I’ve learned that strength has nothing to do with size.
At 17, I was diagnosed with a severe case of Crohn’s disease. Doctors told me that my growth likely slowed years earlier due to malabsorption from chronic inflammation, that I’d need medications for life, and maybe surgery on the horizon. I didn’t yet understand natural healing, but deep within me I felt a spark that said, “This isn't going to be your story.” Over the years, that spark grew into a flame which now continues to light me up and guide me toward true healing and deepening self-discovery, peeling away the layers of the onion.
I’ve never let my size or diagnoses define what I’m capable of. I’ve traveled solo internationally, gone swing jumping and hang gliding, completed multi-day backpacking treks, lived off-grid in the mountains of Peru, adventured through India, and road-tripped across the U.S. more than a handful of times. Many people may believe chronic illness limits them, but I’m here to be living proof that it can actually become a great catalyst for transformation. Your body isn’t broken—it’s simply asking you to listen.
I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree in 2012 and worked as an RN in both traditional and holistic settings. As I began to understand how stress affected my body, my path expanded into massage therapy, energetic healing, and shamanic work. I’m trained in Reiki and Emotion Code and completed a Shamanic Apprenticeship in 2021. I am a Certified Functional Nutritionist by the AADP, have trained as a Root Cause Practitioner, and am currently studying IMAET frequency technology working towards a certification in Bioenergetic Wellness Coaching.
This blend of science and spirituality has shown me that true healing goes far beyond the physical—it’s a journey into the mind, heart, and soul. That’s why my approach with clients weaves together the best of both worlds to help you step into the most radiant, aligned version of yourself.
I’ve turned my pain into purpose, surviving into thriving, and now I get to support others in finding their own freedom in health & in life. When I’m not working, I’m living what I teach: finding joy in traveling, slowing down & diving into a good book, spending time with my kitty, dancing, doing yoga or working out, soaking up nature, and connecting with amazing humans who love growth as much as I do.
