My Story

As with most of us, my story has twists and turns. After graduating college with a degree in Finance and working in the industry for a few years, I began to explore a more holistic way of living and I enrolled in Nutrition at Messiah College. Two years later, I gave birth to my first child, a beautiful girl born with Down Syndrome. Caring for  and nurturing my sweet girl was a priority and so I chose to discontinue my formal education. Being a new mother was stressful, and the constant worry about her health, the future, and the added challenge of raising a child with a disability only intensified my anxiety and I became depressed.  During this challenging time I discovered guided meditation through The Option Institute. As my family grew, so did my interest in the many modalities of meditation, including being trained in Transcendental Meditation. I continued to take advantage of many yogic workshops and I worked hard to release the chains of my depression. I now enjoy abundant gratitude, an open heart, and balance in body, mind & spirit through my practice!  In 2021 I completed formal meditation teacher training with UNPLUG Meditation, and I became a professionally certified Level 2 Sound Therapy Practitioner with Crystal Singing Bowls with the International Sound Healing Academy. In May of 2023, I graduated from the davidji Meditation Academy with a certification in the Masters of Wisdom & Meditation Teacher Training course! I look forward to connecting with you and sharing the wonderful benefits of both meditation and sound therapy! My classes include themes of gratitude, lovingkindness, & acceptance. I enjoy exploring the energy body and chakra systems, and I firmly believe if our thoughts, words, and deeds reflect a complete understanding of Unity, we can be the Peace we are seeking in this moment!
