about me

As a Holistic Health & Wellness Coach, I’m passionate about helping women in midlife create vibrant, fulfilling lives. My journey has been shaped by both professional experience and my personal passions, giving me the tools to support you on your path to health and happiness.

Professional Experience

I earned my Integrative Nutrition Health Coach Certificate from the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, a leader in health and wellness education. I also hold a certificate in Plant-based Nutrition from eCornell and a CulinaryRx certificate from the Rouxbe Culinary School. Currently, I’m pursuing certification as a SoulCollage® facilitator and have studied therapeutic arts for life coaching. My coaching method focuses on nutrition, fitness, rest, relaxation, and self-care to help you achieve lasting transformation.

Before coaching, I spent decades as a professional user experience designer and researcher in industries like healthcare, technology, and financial services. This work required deep listening, empathy, and an ability to uncover people’s pain points and motivations — skills I now use to guide my coaching clients with compassion and understanding — in order to design complex online applications that people would find simple, easy, intuitive, and enjoyable to use.

Personal Passions

Besides being a health coach, I’m also a collage artist and printmaker, and I enjoy integrating my love of collage into my coaching sessions to help clients explore their inner selves. When I’m not creating art or foraging in thrift shops or art stores, you’ll find me spending time with my two cats, spending time outdoors, meditating, singing, practicing yoga, or looking for restaurants that serve delicious (mostly) plant-based meals.

Let’s Work Together

I believe every woman deserves to thrive at every stage of life. Whether you’re looking to improve your health, lose weight, find more energy, or reconnect with yourself, I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way.
