My journey
How I found this work
My own journey into this work began during one of the busiest seasons of my life. While juggling three jobs, I discovered yoga as a way to quiet my mind and reconnect with myself. What started as a practice to manage stress gradually became something much deeper: a relationship with myself that no amount of productivity could replace. In 2019, I completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training through Flow Yoga Center in Washington, D.C., and began teaching both in studios and virtually to collegiate athletes.
Yoga became the doorway to an even deeper exploration of holistic healing. As a lifelong lover of music, I discovered sound medicine through Jhené Aiko's Chilombo album, where the resonance of crystal singing bowls stopped me in my tracks. There was something about their sound that couldn't be explained. It had to be experienced. That curiosity led me to train with Jeralyn Glass in Los Angeles, where I witnessed firsthand the profound ways vibration can support the nervous system and help the body release what words often cannot.
As my path unfolded, I expanded my training to include therapeutic breathwork, Reiki, and trauma-informed somatic practices. While each modality offers something unique, they all continue to affirm the same truth: the body holds an incredible intelligence. When we learn to listen instead of force, soften instead of strive, and feel instead of simply think, we begin to remember who we are beneath the noise.
Today, I blend ancient healing practices, including sound medicine, therapeutic breathwork, Reiki, and embodied healing, to create experiences that gently regulate the nervous system, restore connection to your body, and support a life that feels deeply resonant. My work isn't about fixing you or giving you something you don't already possess. It's about creating the conditions for you to remember who you are, trust your own inner wisdom, and cultivate a life rooted in authenticity, presence, and alignment.
Because healing isn't about becoming someone new. It's about remembering the version of yourself that has been there all along.
Music & sound
My Lifelong Connection to Music & Sound
Music has been woven into my life for as long as I can remember. From listening to music from the ’50s and ’60s with my grandparents to developing a deep appreciation for music across different decades and generations, it’s always been a meaningful part of my life and my family.
What I’ve always loved most about music is its ability to make us feel. A song can instantly transport me back to a beautiful memory, bring tears to my eyes, move me through the entire spectrum of human emotions, or simply remind me of the joy of being alive.
Sharing music is, without a doubt, my #1 love language. Whether it’s sending someone a song that made me think of them, discovering new music together, or sharing the energy of a live performance, music has always been one of my favorite ways to connect with others.
And in my free time? You’ll most likely find me at a concert or rave, singing at the top of my lungs and moving my body without a care in the world. Using my voice, moving freely, and immersing myself in music, especially in community with others, have become some of my favorite ways to reconnect with myself and release whatever I’ve been carrying.
I genuinely believe there’s something deeply healing about coming together through shared experiences of joy, love, laughter, and music. These moments remind us what it feels like to be fully alive, connected, and present.
And I’m pretty sure I would have been an absolute vibe in the ’70s. Peace and love, man.
But in all seriousness, I believe healing isn’t always about digging into what’s heavy or difficult. Sometimes, it’s about creating more experiences that remind our bodies what safety, connection, freedom, and joy feel like. Giving ourselves permission to feel good, to play, to laugh, and to simply be.
Because joy is healing, too.
To me, music and sound are a universal language. They transcend words, generations, and backgrounds, reminding us of something we all share: the ability to feel and connect.
We don’t just hear music with our ears. We feel it with our entire being.
Long before I began working with sound as a healing modality, I experienced firsthand its ability to shift how I felt, bring me into the present moment, and connect me more deeply to myself and others.
In so many ways, this work feels like a natural extension of something I’ve loved my entire life. And now, I have the privilege of sharing that connection with others, creating space for them to experience the power of sound, connection, and joy in their own way.
The name
Why a Wild Garden?
The heart of Wild Garden Wellness has always been rooted in a simple belief: we are not meant to be perfectly shaped, constantly striving, or molded into who the world tells us we should be. We are meant to grow, evolve, and flourish in our own beautiful way.
The name itself came from a special evening spent with my grandma, one of my earth angels, whose love for gardening has always been something I’ve admired.
We were watching a gardening show together when the conversation turned to different styles of gardens. Victorian gardens, with their perfectly manicured hedges and carefully sculpted landscapes, were designed around structure and control. But over time, a different approach emerged: the wild garden. A place where nature was given the freedom to grow organically, beautifully, and without the need to be shaped into something else.
Something about that stayed with me.
Because isn’t that what so many of us are longing for?
In a world that constantly tells us who to be, how to look, what to achieve, and how quickly we should get there, it’s easy to lose touch with our own natural rhythm.
But just like a wild garden, we don’t need to be perfectly manicured to be beautiful, worthy, or whole.
Sometimes, the most meaningful growth happens when we stop trying to control every part of ourselves and begin creating the conditions that allow us to flourish.
And that’s exactly what I hope Wild Garden Wellness can be for you.
A space to slow down, release the expectations you’ve been carrying, reconnect with your true nature, and remember that everything you need to grow is already within you.
You were never meant to fit into a mold. You were meant to bloom in your own way.
