ABOUT ME

After 20 years in Colorado, and without hesitation, I moved to my parents’ historic farmstead, near Hershey, PA to become a caregiver to my mom during her battle with Alzheimer’s disease.

That year challenged me and pushed me close to my breaking point. It was the foundation of my self-discovery and personal evolution. Our family ultimately worked with a nurse consultant for my mother’s final care. It was through her that I discovered the limitless potential for nurses outside the clinical setting. I immediately knew I had to make a change!  This change prompted board certification as a Holistic Nurse Coach, and as a Functional Nutrition Coach.  I have recently also completed a certification as an NASM personal trainer.  What this means for you is that I am wildly passionate about health, wellness, and fitness; and want to help others feel the same.  

I began my professional life planning conferences & events. I also facilitated real estate closings and managed HOA's and resort property. As an RN, I have been an ER Nurse, Nurse Educator, SANE (Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner), Clinical Instructor, House Manager, and Triage Nurse. What that means for you is that I have spark and a huge interest in self-advancement. I believe in finding the right fit so you can love what you do and do what you love.

A lifelong learner, I hold the following degrees: AA, AAN, BS, BSN and MSN.  I support inquiry and knowledge by backing up my work with evidence-based practice.  Resources are always available to my claims.

Find me in my home gym, fly fishing at Penns Creek, hiking, biking, skiing, SUPing, or kayaking! Adventure powers my adrenaline but being a mom is my most amazing adventure. My daughter is my trusty sidekick. We work hard to play harder. I just couldn’t imagine life any other way.

As your coach, I promise to draw on my experiences while using the power of inquiry, support, and challenge to help you find your best self too!
