​The first memory of my wellness awareness began back in 1988 when I was published as a 4th grader in my local newspaper, The Idaho Statesman. As a chubby 10 year old, I wrote and entered an article in a writing contest focused on the repercussions of food choices and how they shape health. Even then I realized the impact of food choices on health and wellbeing.
As I navigated traditional education, I became interested in psychology. I went on to earn a B.S. in Behavioral Science at Utah Valley University. I dabbled

briefly in adolescent therapy, realizing there was still work left to do on myself.
As I pursued my own personal healing I was introduced to Holistic Health, a concept of addressing deficiencies, imbalances, and injuries on all energetic levels. As I began to implement these concepts into the framework of my life, my husband and I graciously accepted an opportunity to move to Boise, ID. Once settled in Boise, I studied holistic nutrition at The Wellspring School for Healing Arts and became a Certified Holistic Nutritionist. Shortly after, I followed my long-time desire to become a hands-on practitioner and embraced the healing modality of Usui Reiki and became a Certified Level II Reiki Practitioner. Most recently, I completed a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training at Sage Yoga and Wellness and became a registered yoga teacher (RYT 200) through the Yoga Alliance. I am also the mother of 2 tenacious and intelligent boys, wife to a peaceful warrior and an advocate of enlightened wellness for all.
