I have always felt the drive to find deeper truths in this life. I was introduced to death at an early age with the passing of my father from brain cancer when I was 14. That traumatic event launched my lifelong search to understand why we are here, where we go when we die, and how to find lasting peace and healing within.

My initial explorations were set on the stage as a professional actor where I spent close to a decade attempting to understand and express the human predicament. Over time, being not quite satisfied with the limitations of the art form, singing and songwriting became my primary creative outlet for expression and connection with spirit, with something larger than myself.

Simultaneously, I dove into exploring many spiritual and therapeutic practices such as Buddhist Vipassanna meditation, Hatha Yoga, Hakomi therapy, A Course in Miracles, “The Work” of Byron Katie, and many teachers who taught Eastern spirituality and philosophy. I longed to understand the mystery of being a spirit in human form and how to live in harmony with all that is.

In my early thirties, I met a Non-Dual teacher based in California and felt deeply moved by his pointing toward oneness and lasting peace. I subsequently spent close to a decade in deep meditation with him and a group of like-minded spiritual seekers. My entire life was turned toward the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. During that time, I experienced many profound windows into the eternal loving presence that animates us while also shedding light on aspects of painful conditioning I’d adopted over a lifetime. Although I touched on deep truths, there continued to be persistent experience of suffering just under the surface.

In 2021, my mother passed away after a very long and challenging illness. Concurrently, my spiritual community fell apart due to unmet shadows and harmful power dynamics that came to light. The pain I felt from these events catapulted me into new territory and helped me recognize ever more clearly that we cannot bypass our humanity in the pursuit of awakening.

That was when I discovered The Kiloby Inquiries, an awareness-based somatic processing practice. The simple marriage of presence and turning toward the places I wanted to run from has brought so much clarity and helped open up a more full and creative expression of my authentic self and a deeper, more embodied recognition of awareness. Using these tools was and continues to be so profoundly supportive in my own personal process of releasing suffering that I decided to become certified as a facilitator to help others.

I love to discover each person’s unique constellation and feel privileged to be a nurturing witness and space holder as they explore their inner world.
