My Healing Journey
-
The Beginning Wanting to be a rock and roll star from an early age, I thought it was necessary to party like one. Fortunately, my cousin recommended I see her friend, an herbalist and Medicine Woman, who put me on my very first "cleanse". This 10-day adventure changed my life forever!

The Path Opens She recommended a book called The Way of Herbs by Michael Tierra which began my studies in nutrition and healthy living. Since then, I have followed a holistic approach to life and have helped others do the same.

New Dimensions This opening of consciousness then opened other doors of yoga, meditation and sound healing. In 2013 I became a Certified Sound Healer through Jonathan Goldman's Healing Sounds Course.

Growing Expertise In 2014, I enrolled in the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and became a Certified Health Coach. Then In 2015 and 2016 I got certified in Reiki I and II.

Continued Practice Just this year, after 15 plus years of practicing yoga, I completed a 200-hour teacher training with Francois Raoult and Open Sky Yoga.
What a journey life is.
The Path to Harmony
I've been a musician most of my life. I started playing the guitar when I was 11 and by 15, I was in my first rock band, Vital Signs. Over the next 20 years, along with graduating from Drexel University with a B.A. in Music/Marketing, I was fortunate to be in a handful of great bands, most notably RESIN, JULIET'S WISHING WELL, HARTER ATTACK and the legendary blues band, DR. HARMONICA AND ROCKETT 88.
In 2010, I released my first solo CD, "All Over the Place" and in April of that year, I embarked on a six-month, cross country charity tour to support it. It was a charity tour called "Half for Humanity", which you can learn more about here. After the tour, I continued to tour around the country, mostly around New Mexico / Colorado in the summer and Florida in the winter, touring my way back and forth.
In 2013, after a long summer of gigs and 13 shows in a row, I decided to take a break on my voice and did a 3-day silent meditation. During that time, I got the inspiration to create a unique sound healing CD, using only organic instruments, bridging the two worlds of secular and sacred music.
In May of 2015, I joyfully released the double Sound healing CD, "Good as Gold". I continue to play rock music in various venues but also offer private and group sessions using sound and music as a healing tool.

Today For the past 7 years I have continued my practice and have shared many of the teachings and techniques I learned over the years. I continue to work with others to help bring more balance and better health into their lives.
