About Me

My journey into the healing arts began in 2016 when I became a certified Reiki practitioner. Since then, I have been dedicated to using Reiki to help my clients find peace and relaxation, effectively reducing their stress and promoting overall well-being.

​

The birth of my grandson in October 2023 was a transformative moment for me. Witnessing the miracle of life and the incredible strength required during labor ignited a profound desire to support other women through their childbirth journeys.

​​

During my 25-year tenure at UR Medicine, I have acquired a deep understanding of hospital operations and administration. While my expertise is non-clinical, this experience has equipped me with valuable knowledge, compassion, and dedication. My commitment is to empower women, celebrate their individual birthing experiences, and provide support throughout their journey.
