Like many, I spent most of my youth thinking I was in good health, meanwhile never actually feeling well and struggling with debilitating mental health issues, poor focus, skin problems, questionable digestion, and other obscure symptoms I didn’t know weren’t normal. That is until, at age 24, I found myself repeatedly hospitalized from the sudden onset of a disease that no doctor seemed to understand or be able to do anything about.

I spent the next 3+ years being bounced around from specialist to specialist, enduring dozens of scans and hundreds of blood tests, only to be continually told some version of “I don’t know, sorry. Come back if it gets worse.” Like clockwork it always did.

Then, after one major flare up led me to finally reach the limits of what both the Western medical system and most alternative resources could offer me, I decided I’d had enough and needed to try a different approach.

In 6 weeks of making that decision, I was able to connect with a new team of practitioners, gain access to more accurate and relevant testing, uncover at least 7 underlying causes, and begin taking the first steps of my recovery process.

Since solving my own medical mystery and making substantial progress in my healing, I’ve been able to pursue a formal education in Holistic Nutrition with additional training in Patient Advocacy and Healthcare Navigation to better serve those I am entrusted to support along their own health-renewing journeys. 

My expertise is not in knowing what your answers are - but in knowing how you can find them, how you can give your body the building blocks to restore balance, and how you can strengthen your connection with your own internal guidance system. Because no one can ever know what you need more than you do.
