About Me
I was an early bloomer. Married at 22, a mom at 23 and a nationally known non-profit executive by 32. People may have thought I had it all, but, that all changed at 35 when I heard those words, “You have cancer.”
After my double mastectomy, chemo, radiation, and a very bad family situation — my life changed forever. I spent 9 years battling crippling anxiety, depression, and weight gain. But it also led to me simplifying my life and prioritizing my health — body, mind, and spirit!
After years of research and self-discovery, I decided to pursue my formal health education and become a certified Institute of Integrative Health Coach! At the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN), I learned innovative coaching methods, practical lifestyle management techniques and over 100 dietary theories including keto, gluten-free, alkaline, vegan, sugar free and many more.
“During my studies with IIN, I was lucky enough to
learn from some of the world’s top health and wellness experts.
I’m constantly seeking out new information, techniques, and teachers
to help myself and my clients become healthier, happier versions of themselves.
The following are various experts that I greatly respect, admire and learn from
in the health and wellness industry.”
