"For much of my life I have been naturally coaching and helping others in their healing and purpose. My innate ability to empathize, encourage, motivate and instruct has made me someone who has positively impacted many lives and is highly respected to those around me. For this I am grateful. I think, feel and love deeply. I’ve come to understand and humbly embrace my life purpose as a holistic healer who is gifted in ministering to the body, soul, and spirit. My primary desire is not only to live a life that pleases God and models the life of Jesus Christ, but live a life of purpose rooted in love to better the world we live in."
