About Me

Holding space for transformation—personal and collective.

My path didn’t begin traditionally.

It began on rivers, trails, and between canyon walls. From ages 19 to 28, I worked as a outdoors—first with the National Park Service in Colorado, then leading trips through my university, and later outdoor guiding professionally in the Grand Canyon and in Jackson, Wyoming. Those years shaped how I show up today: grounded, calm under pressure, and skilled at guiding others through challenge, transformation, and awe.

After nearly a decade in the field, I went back to school and earned a master’s degree in Urban and Regional Planning and spent the next several years in public affairs and community engagement. I facilitated conversations between elected officials, agencies, and communities— and build community engagement plans to help people navigate complex issues and create policy rooted in equity, access, and inclusion.

Alongside my professional work, I’ve spent more than two decades immersed in practices that support nervous system regulation, personal growth, and whole-person leadership—including yoga, mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), change management, and energy-based approaches to healing. Over time, I began weaving those tools into my work with leaders, changemakers, and parents navigating high stress and burnout.

Now, I work at the intersection of individual well-being and strategic leadership. I support women recovering from burnout and redefining their boundaries, and I consult with values-based organizations that need communications support that’s human-centered, mission-aligned, and strategically sound.

I’ve walked through career pivots, burnout, business-building, and deep personal change. I believe women deserve support that honors both their ambition and their well-being. Whether you're recovering, realigning, or reinventing—you're not meant to do it alone.

My work is about creating space for people to come back to what really matters—with clarity and compassion.
