"I'm supposed to clean up my diet and eat healthier. Now I don't know what to eat. And I don't even enjoy cooking."
"If it's JUST IBS, why isn't medication healing me?
"I've basically cut out everything but water, and I'm still bloating."
"I've been told to heal my gut or test for mold. What does that even mean?"
"I've spent so much time trying to figure this out. Why aren’t I feeling better yet?"
"Everyone thinks I'm crazy. It can’t all be in my head, can it?"
It's not in your head. Your body is overloaded and letting you know.
I know exactly how you feel.
I get it. It's incredibly frustrating to have big dreams, goals, and a vision for your life, but be held back by demoralizing symptoms that have zapped your energy and self-worth.
I'm an environmental toxins consultant, holistic chef, and certified wellness coach. I help people like you struggling with frustrating symptoms like allergies, IBS/food sensitivities, brain fog and more, to finally overcome their chronic allergies, eat comfortably, clear up their skin, function optimally, and achieve peace in their bodies.
My clients come to me as a last-ditch effort with the common theme of long-term discomfort, discouragement, and overwhelm. They're tired of their health struggles holding them back from being the best versions of themselves at work and in their personal lives.
They’ve tried multiple practitioners and were either brushed off, given a pill and no further support, or went down a rabbit hole spending time and resources for solutions still without any improvement.
Maybe this has gone on for months or even years without resolution despite seeking help.
Using my background in research and healthcare, I build this business to help support people like you, so you can move past these challenges and live your most optimized life.
Don't know how this is different from what you've already tried? Unless you've explored your symptoms from a holistic viewpoint, (looking at how all your health habits combined) with any triggers in your physical environment, you haven't tried everything yet.
Don’t know how or what to cook? I'll teach you and help you adjust meal plans and recipes for your unique needs. Cooking is my jam!
Not into fad juice cleanses or woo-woo manifesting your way out of this mess? Neither am I. I source science-backed information and break it down into actionable bite-sized steps for maximum impact. Don't get me wrong, mindset and your spiritual health are extremely important, but as a person of Faith, I won't ever recommend any New Age practices like crystals, healing energy, or manifesting. I even give essential oils the side-eye (but only because of the sometimes faulty use that can cause more harm)!
Don’t know how to handle your family/friends/colleagues commenting on your issues? I'll help you navigate sticky social situations with grace and healthy boundaries.
Worried I'll try to sell you specific products? I'm not affiliated with any network marketing company nor receive commissions from recommending some products over others. I only recommend products I have personally used or like and it's never required to purchase products to work with me.
Don’t know where to start? I will give you a roadmap of baby steps to take to make huge changes in your symptoms.
Don't know if you can actually do this? I hold your hand the whole way with lots of touchpoints- I’m not going to send you away with a plan and not walk alongside it with you.
Worried about sticking to the plan long-term? We will kick away the roadblocks in your way, from sifting through the overwhelming amount of information, to effectively implementing habits you can actually stick to.
My approach is comprehensive and holistic. That means we closely evaluate all possible sources of your symptoms, from foundational principles like sleep, stress, and diet, but especially seeking out any environmental triggers and toxins affecting your overall inflammation.
I work alongside you and provide resources, expertise, and accountability to make and sustain key lifestyle adjustments to get you back to your vibrant self.
You'll experience an incredible transformation from battling your frustrating symptoms and held back by your own body to feeling vibrant and revived to start hitting your personal and professional goals.
I did it for myself, I have helped other people do it for themselves, and I can help you too.
Let me be your guide and mentor so you can finally overcome these challenges and thrive.
What do you have to lose? Stop letting more time pass feeling miserable and missing out on life. Let me help you back to your vibrant, empowered self.
Start today.
I became sick at the age of 24 from toxic mold exposure, although I didn’t know it until later. In a matter of months, I alarmingly transformed from a vibrant, driven young woman in my first year of medical school to a shell of who I was, battling muscle aches, neuropathies, fatigue, weight loss, GI distress, food intolerances, and sensitivities to a variety of allergens and chemicals.
I am a veteran survivor of the healthcare industry, from allopathic to homeopathic medicine, including various branches of those philosophies. No one knew what was happening to me and I saw almost 30 providers before I finally found help! Many doctors shrugged me off or told me to try anti-depressants, sleep studies, steroids, and rounds of antibiotics and antifungals- but without ever explaining why or how those treatments would heal me.
Sound familiar? So, I instead spent thousands of dollars on alternative treatments and supplements. I also tried many diets from Paleo to AIP, low-histamine, GAPS, you name it. I still was not improving much and knew some element was missing, so I started digging for answers.
I have an M.S. in Biotechnology and worked at a hospital conducting clinical research for end-stage liver disease and transplant patients. I employed my research skills and read as much as I could, applying my academic knowledge of physiology and immunology. I realized that although I had successfully addressed my diet, lifestyle, and nutritional deficiencies to lower inflammation, I had not yet tackled triggers in my environment.
Don't give up. If you haven't addressed your symptoms from a holistic viewpoint, you haven't tried everything yet.
It’s not too late to find relief.
After I removed many toxins from my home environment the brain fog, muscle aches, and sensitivities began to lift and improve. The treatments, diet modifications, and supplements finally were able to do their thing without my body dealing with the constant assault from physical stressors in my environment. I went from being trapped in a highly inflamed, reactionary body too tired and miserable to even leave my bed, to an empowered entrepreneur, vibrant wife, and even a mother!
I now use my knowledge and experience to help others achieve the same transformation in a holistic, comprehensive way. I received my wellness coaching certification and now help clients in their own health journeys, as well as provide workshops and cooking demonstrations to teach others in my community.
I relate to where you are right now, desperate and frustrated with your health status. My mission is to empower you to understand the vital connection between high inflammation and your physical health and take control. Inflammation is triggered by a variety of sources. With my comprehensive and unique system, I will help you to find your unique triggers, remove them, and maintain your lifestyle so you can finally feel peace in your body.
I am obsessed with researching non-toxic products, learning more about environmental health, and I especially enjoy reading new books on health and wellness.
I grew up in the Midwest but now call Texas home (DFW). I am a practicing Catholic. I am married to my soulmate and we are the parents of four wonderful children and one baby in heaven.
I love playing soccer and watching college basketball. In my free time, you will find me cooking, playing the piano, reading, swimming, or hanging out with my family outside.
