My story began as a healthy teenager star athlete and abruptly changed to unexplained limb pain, nerve damage and weakness. After exhausting western medical doctors, symptoms progressing into my spine, neck and muscular system and no answers, I had a decision to make about how I would live my life. Although I was merely a teenager, I chose to see this event as a gift, and this was the beginning of my quest to explore alternative healing modalities. The road less traveled isn’t always easy, but the reward of living my truth, continues to lead me down a path of spiritual growth, connections, and healing.

In 2004, yoga and meditation became my lifelong friends. Seeking a deeper understanding of the body and breath, in 2007, I followed my intuitive calling and moved from Pennsylvania to the Arizona desert. Here, I completed my 200 hour Anusara yoga teacher training certification and was introduced to an inspirational Kundalini yoga teacher. I spent several years immersing myself in studying the liberating movements and sounds of Kundalini yoga.

​

As my spiritual journey continued to unfold, I walked into my first Supreme Science Qigong class in 2013. While I don’t practice this form anymore, the introduction to Qi and Qigong concepts furthered my passionate quest to learn more about energy healing. Moving to northern California for a year, I had the honor to study several Qigong forms under the Redwood Forest such as Wudang Mountain and Tiger Mountain. Furthering my studies of this beautiful, ancient knowledge, I completed my 100 hour Qigong instructor certification in 2018. Soon thereafter, from 2021 - 2022, I completed my Medical Qigong Practitioner and Therapist certifications at East Coast Institute of Medical Qigong. As a lifelong student, I am currently pursuing my Medical Qigong Masters certification completion in 2023 and weekly "play" Yang style Tai Chi and various Qigong forms.

​

By following Medical Qigong traditional protocols, I have been trained to connect with the universal divine light, enabling me to use myself as a conduit for moving such energy through a client’s body. Refining this skill set has become my greatest gift and honor. Harnessing my unique experience of receiving treatments by various healers for over 20 years, also gives me a true understanding of what it means to hold the healing space for others. We are all spiritual beings on a unique soul journey. I hope to bring peace, joy, and healing to others like Qigong and so many healers have done for me in my own healing journey.
