My Maven Superpower is …
Empowerment. I love working with women to help them take charge of their health and their lives.
Best book I’ve read lately is …
“An Elegant Defense.” It’s all about our immune system. Written by a journalist, it’s a very easy read.

Early morning walks. I need time either alone or with a few friends in nature.
My first job was …
Fast food! And I ate A LOT of it!
The best career advice I can offer is …
Don’t look at others to validate your success. We all have our own paths.

I feel most confident when …
My body is strong.
My favorite local restaurant dish is …
Sticky Toffee Pudding at Late Harvest. Because you have to splurge sometimes…

What have you achieved recently that you’d like to celebrate with our community?
I just finished a comprehensive series of classes that allow me to work with the *hardest* clients. Think autoimmune, mold issues, brain health.
What’s next for you? What can we expect to see over the next few years?
I will continue to build my 1:1 practice and will add a group program for perimenopausal women in the next year.
