At the heart of my work is a simple belief: sometimes we don’t need to do more. We need space to slow down, listen, and reconnect with what’s already happening within us.

Through body-centered and energetic practices, I support people in cultivating greater awareness, finding more ease in their nervous systems, and reconnecting with their own inner wisdom. My approach is gentle, grounded, intuitive, and deeply rooted in the body.

​

Before stepping into this work, I spent more than 20 years in technology and user experience design, where understanding people, their needs, behaviors, and experiences was at the center of what I did. Over time, I felt called toward a different kind of human connection: less time behind a screen and more time working directly with people.

​

My path was also deeply shaped by the years I lived in Costa Rica. It was there that I was first attuned to Reiki and experienced firsthand the power of slowing down, connecting with nature, and becoming more present in my own body and life. That experience continues to influence the way I hold space today.

​

Rather than approaching wellbeing through a single modality, I draw from Reiki, somatic practice, Ayurveda, yoga, breath, and other embodied practices depending on what feels supportive in the moment.

​

Whether you come to me for Reiki, a somatic session, or simply a place to pause and reset, my intention is the same: to create space for you to feel more grounded, connected, and at home in yourself.
