I had a long and successful career in legal administration and then became a massage therapist in 2008 and a yoga teacher in 2015. I've been offering bodywork in private practice for well over a decade.
In 2017, I completed training as a personal life coach through The Center for Happiness in Anacortes, Washington, and launched my coaching practice immediately. I've enjoyed not only working and collaborating with women across the Pacific Northwest, but our combined creativity and empowerment workshops and retreats have taken us to the French Caribbean, Mexico, Colorado, and the San Juan Islands.
One thing I'm fascinated with is what makes people tick. I've studied the Enneagram of Personality since the early 2000s, and enjoy facilitating informal group discussions on this powerful system of personality. It fulfills me to empower people to take care of themselves inside and out.

Although I continue to offer massage therapy part-time, I was looking for deeper personal fulfillment as I began to transition into a new stage of life. So in late 2019, I answered the call to enroll in coursework to become a ceremony celebrant. After I earned my credentials to officiate funerals, I immediately entered robust coursework in end of life studies, which I completed during the global pandemic! I'm also an Oregon Notary Public, an ordained non-denominational minister, and Reiki master.

I knew that I wanted to continue working and enjoying a career as I began to age out of the traditional job market. Focusing on end of life planning and memorial ceremonies has been a perfect fit for my calm demeanor, skillset, and desire to be of service to others during challenging times.
I was born in Oregon and I’m a (mostly) native Oregonian living on the northern Oregon Coast. I can be found hiking or biking and exploring the beautiful beaches and forests of the area with my husband Matt. I have five grown kids living all over the globe.
