I love art in all its forms. Health, in its dynamic grandeur, is an art. We humans are a masterpiece— a  poetic reflection of creativity and story— interwoven with experiences and full of history and potential that goes beyond the physical. 

That’s what I love about holistic wellness, ancient nutrition and alternative medicine—it acknowledges the whole person. It takes into account universal principles and understanding that leaves space for personalization and nuance. It sees the significance of the connected and integrated tapestry—from beauty to pain to potential.

I am thankful to experience, study, and practice frequency wellness and mind-body nutrition. I consider it one of the most brilliant of all the arts. I see myself as an advocate, chronic illness pioneer, and student of the healing arts. As a native researcher and investigator, my deep interest in the mind-body connection, epigenetics, understanding the body’s messages and using food as medicine has only grown more robust over the years.

I am, like all of us, a full-time student of life. Led by its unexpected turns, my journey has become one of my greatest teachers. Much of my early life was marked by persistent health challenges—a constant feeling of being trapped in a hypersensitive body, shuffled from specialist to specialist in search of answers and direction. The undertone of my story echoed with cycles of endless redirection and deep disappointment, weighed down by the magnitude of my symptoms. The limited approaches and lack of progress only fueled my inner knowing that there had to be more.

Seeking alternative medicine and ancient remedies, I committed to understanding my system—driven by the hope that life beyond the chaos was tangible. By turning toward my intrinsic design, I rediscovered the nourishment rooted in my natural origin, which deepened my dedication to the interconnectedness of gut, brain, and mind-body relationships. Progress came, symptoms lessened, but the chaos lingered—some fundamental pieces were still missing.

My journey unfolded within the complexities of a hypersensitive body that often felt like a trap. Specialist after specialist offered little beyond medications, creating a tiresome cycle that became a recurring thread in my story. Overwhelmed by unresolved concerns and adverse effects from conventional interventions, I felt misplaced in my own body—stalled by limited approaches and stagnant progress. In my late teens, a pivotal decision led me to choose lifestyle changes over prescriptions, launching me into a deeper pursuit of alternative medicine, ancient remedies, and the intricate connections between the gut, brain, and body.

Progress came slowly, but the chaos within my body persisted. After extensive testing, a deeper truth emerged: I had been unknowingly battling Lyme disease and co-infections for decades—compounded by MTHFR, MCAS, heavy metals, mold, and the lingering effects of an illness contracted overseas. My organs were under severe stress, nearing shutdown. The correct diagnosis came just in time, marking a turning point that launched me into a deeper season of discovery, learning, and healing. Recovery became a daily choice—an invitation to partner with my design and embrace the process.

In a world saturated with quick fixes, toxins, and mass production, the most integral elements of health—pathology, biology, psychospiritual roots, genetics, and environment—are often overlooked. I saw early on how disconnected conventional medicine can be from true wellness and preventative care. But I also witnessed how real nourishment restores our relationship with the body’s wisdom and our God-given design. The answers I tirelessly sought for year were now within reach.
