I am passionate about helping people heal using Functional Medicine approach, and empowering them to make necessary lifestyle and behavior changes. This passion stems from my own health struggles and healing journey.

After I gave birth to my daughter my health started to decline. I struggled with fatigue, mood swings, irritability, disrupted sleep, and weight gain for a number of years. After seeing a couple of conventional doctors and not finding anything “abnormal” through basic lab testing they ordered, I embraced living with those symptoms as a part of aging and perhaps not having good genes. I also told myself that maybe it was all in my head, that it was normal to feel this way, and that there is nothing I could do about it.

Yet, there was always a part of me that knew that I could feel better, and that I deserved it. I wanted to feel like myself again, and I was tired of feeling tired and struggling with low energy most days.

I’ve tried different dietary changes, went plant based for some time, but didn't really see any significant improvement. In some ways, things got worse. I started having debilitating insomnia episodes. That was my breaking point. I told myself that I would do anything to get out of this mess. I didn’t want to continue living like this. The time during the pandemic was also a time of big realizations for me. I wanted to become a steward of my own health, and not be reliant on our conventional medical system that wasn’t serving me anyway.

I started researching, reading, and listening to health podcasts in order to find some clues. It wasn’t until I discovered functional medicine, that things truly started to fall in place for me just like putting pieces of a puzzle together. Because it’s always about going to the roots, instead of treating the apples.

Now I feel like I can flourish again. I became passionate about functional medicine, because it’s treating the root cause instead of symptoms. I also see it as the direction we need to head towards as a society. So I went back to school for a year, and now I am a Functional Medicine Certified Coach.Now, my mess became my message.
I want you to know that you are not alone, that it’s not just in your head, and that you can heal because you deserve to have vibrant health. It’s not a quick fix, but it’s a journey worth embarking on. Let me help you regain your health and vitality.
