From Adventurous Explorer toĀ Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach!
Ā
I've always pursued a life less ordinary,Ā steering clear of the conventional 'American Dream.'
My journey began as a young anthropology student, spending summers coding chipped stones in Wyoming, unearthing dinosaur fossils in South Dakota, andĀ helping atĀ the Hudson-Meng Bison Bonebed.
Further adventures led me to South Africa, where I studied ecosystems, worked on a Big 5 game farm, and captured the world through photography. For 14 incredible years, I guided global travelers on life-changing safaris, managed lodges, and explored the globe.
But 2020 marked a turning point. Reflecting on my life, one constant emerged: my unwavering commitment to health. It was the foundation of my rich, fulfilling life, no matter where I roamed.
Back in high school, a car accident left me with a broken back and daunting health challenges. Conventional treatments fell short, prescribing medications that offered little relief. I endured psoriasis, weight fluctuations, and gut issues for years until I discovered holistic health & Functional Medicine.
Holistic health approaches wellness by considering the complete individual, emphasizing healing across mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions. As I embraced these principles, my health transformed - weight dropped, psoriasis receded, and gut issues improved.
I fully embraced the transformative power of holistic healing and immersed myself in mastering these life-changing practices. This journey led me to the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy via the Institute of Functional Medicine.
And in 2022, I made my way back to Colorado to be near my loved ones and kick off my exciting new adventure as a Functional Medicine Health Coach & then onto my Board Certification.
My approach to health & wellness is rooted in my life's experiences and supported by the tools and techniques I've acquired through my certifications.
