About
I bring together years of teaching, tech, and lived experience — along with grounded training in Reiki, Emotion Code, and coaching — to help you find your way forward with more clarity and self-trust.
Work with MeI know what it's like to feel stuck, to question your worth, and to live a life shaped by others' expectations. I'm in the process of rediscovering who I am and what I want after years of putting others first, trying to meet what I thought they expected of me, and still never feeling quite good enough. And now I support others who are ready to start that journey too — reconnecting with themselves and choosing a path that actually feels like their own.
I've always been drawn to teaching and helping people. That thread has run through classrooms, friendships, and the ordinary moments when someone simply needed a steady presence, a listening ear, or a helping hand.
The more recent chapters are personal. My divorce cracked open the life I thought I was living. I was supported through it by someone who showed me a very different way of being. That person passed away, and that grief had its own shape. Eventually I moved back to my childhood home — driving over 500 miles each weekend for two months in a two-door Jeep Wrangler with a trailer in tow and my new dog by my side.
Out of all of that, I decided to become a life coach. Emotion Code came next, giving me a way to reach what lives beyond talk. And somewhere in there, I realized I was already doing energy work — which is what finally led me to certify in Reiki.
Teaching has been a through-line in my life — I've been a special education teacher helping struggling learners break through barriers. I also teach flute lessons and conduct an amateaur flute choir. Different settings, same practice: meeting people where they are and making room for them to grow.
Years as a software engineer, web developer, and accessibility specialist taught me to untangle complicated problems. Along the way I mentored colleagues, trained peers, and led cross-functional teams — work that made me fluent in translating between different kinds of thinkers.
Divorce, grief, starting over, and rebuilding my life are part of my own story. That path has shaped how I hold space for others — with honesty, compassion, and a real sense of what it takes to rebuild your life and discover who you really are.
