A path of awakening, healing, and transformation
MY JOURNEY
As a multi-faceted being with a love for the planet, animals, and creative expression, I began my undergraduate studies in wildlife biology, as well as photography and mixed media art. Ending up with a Bachelor’s in Fine Art and a fascination for fashion and personal expression, I made my way to NYC to pursue a career in fashion and wardrobe styling. Continuing for over 10 years, I dedicated my life to it, hustled, and worked my way up slowly, building a successful freelance career within one of the most competitive fields in the world. But despite “making it” in NYC and pursuing my passion, my soul knew deep down that I had a much bigger purpose and had way more in store for me.
In 2016 out of deep curiosity, I sought to understand and formally develop my psychic abilities and reconnect to a spiritual path that I had lost touch with during my career pursuit. I attended the Holistic Studies Institute of NY and was taught by some of NYC’s finest and most recognized mediums. In that time, I began to awaken to the intuitive abilities and sensitivities within me that I had been conditioned all my life to ignore and fear. I began to expand as a spiritual being and develop a deeper connection with spiritual forces in ways I always knew to be possible within my heart, but had been conditioned to believe otherwise.
In 2017, I underwent several losses in my personal life bringing me to finally face harmful and embedded patterns and behaviors. Luckily from a newfound connection with spiritual dimensions and my intuition, I allowed myself to surrender completely to my healing process. I dove deep into healing work and began a committed path of personal and spiritual development. Around this time, I also felt called to go into nature and camp alone which had been both a lifelong goal and fear of mine. During this first time camping solo, I underwent a sudden awakening in which I was brought to remember many parts of myself that I had unconsciously been neglecting for years.
I saw my life flash before me and realized that I had slowly lost touch with myself and my higher path for over a decade. I realized that I had been conforming and constraining the wholeness of my being into conventional roles, a narrow career path, and to the hustle of commercial career success. I realized that I had slowly lost unconditional love and acceptance of myself and was looking for approval everywhere outside of myself. In result, I had been unknowingly performing false versions of myself in order to find outside acceptance, belonging, or worth.
From this realization, I left my life and career in NYC, and further pursued alone time in nature to deepen my newfound connection with myself. I completed additional travels in the US and then decided to take this goal to a global level, solo traveling around the world for the majority of a year.
I traveled across Africa, the UK, Scandinavia, and Europe, seeing places and doing things I had longed to do my whole life. It was during that time that I began to rediscover all the parts of myself that had been lost, as well as discover new parts of myself that I never knew existed.
Through exploring the vast and varied beauty of the planet during my travels, I reunited with my passion for the earth, my passion for life, and in living fully with presence and awe. I began to reunite with my love and acceptance for all parts of myself and my deep love and compassion for others. I reunited with my love of nature as well as nature photography and spent most of my time photographing the landscapes of 16 countries.
During my travels, I discovered a love of spontaneity and adventure by allowing my intuition to guide the direction and flow of my travels. I learned for the first time in my life how to let go and find a sense of being, after so much doing, controlling, and striving. I found unbounded joy and bliss by allowing my heart and soul to lead, instead of following the narrow focus of my mind.
I was gifted endless synchronicities, experiences, and insights that ignited the seeker within me. I began to grow more curious about what it was that I was experiencing during my travels, as well as during my experiences as a medium and empath.
After my travels, I returned to the US and continued my journey of understanding and truth-seeking. I sought to learn more about the human psyche, our world, spiritual dimensions, and consciousness itself at the center of it all. I pursued and earned a Master’s Degree in Consciousness Studies and Transpersonal Psychology, a Psychospiritual Life Coaching Certification, and went on to complete over a year of a Transpersonal Psychology Doctorate program as well.
Today, I continue to journey deep on a path of spiritual connection, alignment, expansion and personal growth with commitment and passion. I continue to learn and practice new skills personally and professionally and look forward to allowing my work to continually evolve alongside me.
From this journey, I am especially committed to living a slower-paced life that is more connected and attuned to myself, others, and the earth, and to helping others do the same.
