What sets me apart? With a Masters in Health and Wellness Coaching, a Nutrition Coaching Certificate from IIN, and a degree in Fitness Technology from Portland Community College, my background in holistic well-being is robust. My diverse experiences as a translator, counselor, victim advocate, and school bus driver have shaped my unique perspective. I've lived in Europe, experienced the vibrant culture of Austin, and embraced movement and exploration. Burning Man fuels my passion for travel and connection. With a partner and grown child, family anchors me. I'm also pursuing new heights in bodybuilding, specifically in the physics division. I find peace in biking, hiking, and sun-kissed beaches. As an introvert who values both solitude and connection, I balance my time between quiet reflection and shared moments. Ready to embrace the next adventure, I look forward to what lies ahead.
