About Me
I'm a holistic nutritionist, herbalist and detox specialist with almost a decade of studies in health and a lifelong interest in whole food and holistic healing.
​
I specialize in a root-cause, customized healing approach using individually-tailored treatment plans informed by my background in health science, herbalism and traditional chinese medicine. ​
My Story
I come from a family of high-achieving hypochondriacs. From a young age, I knew that my only option was to be successful. I learned to fear my body and its symptoms, seeing them as unpredictable, uncontrollable, and praying that one-day I wouldn’t wake up with an ‘unlucky’ diagnosis.
I grinded, got straight As and got into a prestigious university program with a reputation for pumping out ideal med-school candidates. I won scholarships that funded my completion of an MSc, determined to one-day earn the doctor badge of honour.
I fuelled my productivity (and anxiety) with coffee and struggled for years with UTIs, debilitating menstrual cramps, and a completely unpredictable cycle. I lived a life of incessant worry, multiple rounds of antibiotics, prophylactic painkillers and a ‘cycle’ that sometimes went several months without bleeding.
Despite having grown up rurally, being an outdoor enthusiast, and conducting primary research at the time on food sovereignty, I’d fallen out of alignment with my own nature. As I fell out of touch with the moon, stars, seasons, and plants around me, I suppressed my own inter-related cycle and rhythm.
Then, a series of de-stabilizing events during grad school prompted me to awaken to the corruption underpinning the medical industrial complex and catalyzed me to stop pushing down a path that was never truly mine.
So, I decided to walk my talk. I stopped theorizing and I embarked on a journey to nourish and heal myself.
Along the way, I consulted medicine women, herbalists and energy healers, ordered labs, supplements and detox kits, and learned to grow, forage and prepare my own medicines. Now, I'm in a place where I've reclaimed my health and sovereignty and I feel called to help you...
