My story

The Big C

In 2014, I was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a life-altering experience that turned everything upside down. The journey to recovery was filled with numerous obstacles, from grueling chemotherapy sessions to intensive radiation treatments. Thankfully, through it all, I managed to persevere and ultimately underwent a successful allogeneic stem cell transplant.

Now, as I bask in the beauty of the Pacific Northwest, I am grateful for the second chance at life and the opportunity to embrace a healthy, holistic lifestyle. However, my path towards wellness wasn't always smooth. During my treatment for leukemia, I yearned for nourishment that would support my body's healing process and sought alternative methods, such as cannabis and CBD, to alleviate the side-effects of chemotherapy and radiation.

Yet, I found myself drowning in a sea of conflicting information, unsure of where to turn for trusted guidance. The internet and books only plunged me further into confusion, leaving me overwhelmed and unsure of how to navigate this new territory. It became evident that I needed to consult with a medical cannabis professional, someone who could provide me with the expertise I so desperately sought. Sadly, at that time, such professionals were scarce.

Nevertheless, my experiences during and after my battle with leukemia transformed me into my own guinea pig. I embarked on a personal experiment, trying countless cannabis and CBD products in search of the ones that brought me relief. Through this trial and error process, I not only discovered what worked for me, but I also gained valuable insights and lessons along the way.

The wealth of knowledge and the newfound sense of well-being I attained ignited a fire within me. I became driven to learn more, to delve deeper into the realms of plant-based nutrition, holistic cannabis practice, and overall integrative health. My desire to "be the change" propelled me to become a plant-based chef, a holistic cannabis practitioner, and ultimately, an integrative health coach.

Today, as a virtual integrative nutrition health coach, I am passionate about serving others who find themselves in similar situations. Armed with my personal experiences, I am dedicated to helping individuals not only navigate through the bewildering world of health and wellness but also to empower them to find their own unique path towards vibrant well-being.

Together, we can discover the transformative power of a holistic approach and create a life filled with health, happiness, and vitality.

Be the change that you wish to see in the world.

Hobbies & Interests

My beloved hobbies include immersing myself in the soulful melodies of music, both through attending exhilarating live performances and finding solace in the harmonious strains of my favorite tunes.

I am drawn to the transformative power of yoga and meditation, which help me find inner balance and harmony amidst life's chaotic rhythms.

Exploring the majestic wonders of nature, particularly through hiking in enchanting sandstone landscapes and marveling at the grandeur of towering trees and the captivating depths of dark skies, fills me with awe and a deep sense of connection to the world around me.

Embarking on adventurous road trips fuels my spirit of exploration, unveiling new horizons and unexpected discoveries along the way. I find joy and serenity gliding across the serene waters on a paddleboard, while the exhilaration of roller skating and the thrill of skiing or snowboarding give me an adrenaline rush like no other.

The art of cooking allows me to express my creativity and nourish my body and soul, while capturing the essence of flavors and sharing moments of culinary delight with loved ones.

Through the lens of photography, I capture fleeting moments and preserve cherished memories, infusing each image with a story waiting to be told. These are just a few of the passions that fill my days with vibrancy and bring me immeasurable happiness.
