About Me

Welcome to my wellness page. I have 25 years of experience in healthcare and I am practicing Mindfulness Coach since 2020. My wellness journey sprouted from childhood with my desire to become calm in a chaotic world. In return, it taught me how to be resilient. Meditation and mindfulness has transformed me into a more positive, productive, and peaceful person, and I can’t wait to share its benefits with you.

My techniques are simple and easy to integrate into daily life, no matter how busy you are. I have helped hundreds of people from all backgrounds and skill levels. Join me today to start your transformation journey.
