My first spirit guide appeared to me when I was 4 years old. We called her my “imaginary friend,” even though we all knew she was more than that. Her name was Julie and she appeared to me as an 8 year old girl. I always said she came from the attic but it was because she came from up above.

At a very young age I felt connected to spirits and felt confident in my knowingness beyond what meets the eye. This connection and knowledge of the spirit world shaped my view of this physical world. As I got older, spirit, healing and intuition felt like my higher purpose. I was continually drawn to this path with my vivid dreams and ability to read people and energy. 

Reiki was my introduction to the healing world in my adult life and it was a springboard for my intuitive lifestyle and career. The more I connected, the more I was able to tap into new realms, information and new healing potentials. I now trust and follow my intuition over all else and teach others to do the same.
