My Story
A Journey to Empowerment
Taking Control of Health and Wellness
My passion for health began at a very young age. Surrounded by family members in the medical field, discussions of medicine and science were commonplace at our dinner table. Seeing how they helped others sparked a desire within me to follow in their footsteps and make a positive impact on people’s lives.
High School and Autoimmune Disease
My life took an unexpected turn during my high school years when I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. This challenging period exposed me to the limitations of conventional medicine as I grappled with unanswered questions and ineffective treatments. Feeling lost and scared, I embarked on a personal journey to regain control over my health.
University Years and Functional Medicine
As I entered university, my aspirations leaned towards medical school. However, the relentless pressures of test-taking, coupled with my crippling anxiety and stress, made it increasingly difficult to pursue that path. It was during this time that I discovered the work of Charles Poliquin, a renowned strength coach who seamlessly blended medicine and fitness. His holistic approach to health intrigued me and introduced me to the world of Functional Medicine, expanding my knowledge and fostering a curiosity in the power of supplementation.
Academic Achievements and Career Shift
Following my undergraduate degrees in Kinesiology and Biology, I secured a job in the pharmaceutical industry, eager to contribute and absorb as much as I could. Yet, a sense of unease gnawed at me, and I realized that pharmaceuticals alone were not the panacea for our world’s health challenges. Deep within, I knew there had to be more.
Personal Health Journey and Lifestyle Changes
It was around this time that my anxiety intensified due to life’s stressful circumstances, plunging me into a state of depression. I tossed and turned every single night, unable to fall asleep. Feeling like a mere shell of my former self, I faced a pivotal decision: rely on medication indefinitely or take control of my own well-being. Embracing the principles of holistic medicine, I turned to nature and transformed my habits to aid in my own healing. Skepticism gradually gave way to astonishing results as I incorporated adaptogens recommended by a naturopath, experiencing a profound shift in my health and well-being.
Sales Job with Ortho Molecular Products
Soon after, I embarked on a new chapter in my career, landing a sales position with Ortho Molecular Products. This company, with its rich history of teaching doctors the power of lifestyle medicine and pioneering science-backed supplementation, resonated deeply with my passion for true health. Here, I honed my expertise and dove deep into the world of holistic healing and sharing actionable information with my clinicians to help their patients.
Continued Learning and Life Mission
In 2021, I left that all behind and went all in on my consulting practice. Helping my clients overcome their health struggles is the best blessing I could ever ask for. Each day, I’m committed to ongoing learning and staying at the forefront of lifestyle medicine advancements. My life’s mission is to share the knowledge and wisdom I have gained, empowering people like you to seize control of their health, WITHOUT medication. I believe that there’s always a way forward, no matter what anyone else says
