I am a certified Health and Life Coach and PhD in Biomedical Sciences with a decade of experience in research on nutritional interventions, psychedelics, and psychiatric disorders. (View my publications here.) The undercurrent of my work is the mind-body-nature connection and how metabolic (aka energetic) health is crucial to the cultivation of mental health and graceful aging. I value my training deeply as it equipped me with important skills, perspective, and balance to my intuitive processes.

I am also a human that has dealt with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar disorder personally and in my family lineage. I had a deep desire to navigate my issues without pharmaceuticals, and I do… with the support of friends, family, professionals, and mentors. Truthfully, my intuition led me away from the western medical system and towards movement and embodiment, nourishment, relationship, energy, and nature. In this way I hold wisdom and understanding in my body and mind in regards to working with and alchemizing disordered energies into true, lasting healing and vitality. My experience feels much deeper than any of the academic learning and research I have accomplished, but is balanced wonderfully by it.

I offer my expertise, knowledge, time, attention, and care to those who want to navigate health and mental health holistically, because we all need strong people in our support network to do so.

I do not offer quick fixes. I offer steady, consistent guidance, education, and support to bring you into balance, your true power, and alignment with a deeply fulfilling life.
