What I do
My work focuses on providing healthy solutions for energy, weight loss, and aging gracefully. I help people learn to navigate the complexities of diet and nutrition in order to feel better and increase their energy to enjoy life to the full.
My clients are often dealing with issues such as weight gain, poor digestion, and low energy. They appreciate the support I provide to gain clarity on what foods are best for their health and lifestyle. With the support of a guide-at-the-side, they develop stronger intuition and ability to align their actions with their intentions. The personal attention is what helps my clients reach success!
I also teach Yoga, Meditation & Ayurveda -- The sister sciences of Self-Realization. These Eastern practices bring calmness and clarity to life in the 21st century.
Lastly, but by no means least, I support nurses who want to learn to be mentors and teachers. You can learn more by visiting my site, NursesToTeachers.com

My Credentials
I earned my graduate degree in nursing (MS) at Regis University, Denver, CO. I studied Health Care Leadership with an emphasis on Health Care Education. I have practiced as a registered nurse for over 27 years, taking care of patients and educating nursing students. I have seen first hand the damaging effects of diet and lifestyle on very sick people. I have now shifted my attention from management of illness toward prevention of disease. Longevity does not have to mean chronic disease and debilitation. There is a better way!
I am a Certified Health Coach. My studies at the Institute of Integrative Nutrition, the world's largest nutrition school, involved the exploration of over 100 different dietary theories and the concept of bio-individuality. This knowledge has helped me to guide others in the diet and lifestyle choice that work best for them in order to achieve health and well-being. I am also a Yoga, Meditation and Ayurveda instructor which has helped me increase flexibility, balance, stamina, stress tolerance, and self-awareness. I believe that nutrition and lifestyle are the key to health promotion and disease prevention. Our natural state of health and wholeness is uncovered when body, mind, and spirit are assessed and treated as interrelated systems.
