About The Author

I am a writer, herbalist, and creative who has spent more than a decade exploring how we heal without abandoning ourselves. My work lives at the meeting place of earth wisdom, psychology, and the human story where science meets the soul and stories become medicine.

I began my career in a very different world—cybersecurity—before following the pull toward what has always called me: the living earth, human resilience, and the quiet magic of words. Along the way, I’ve earned a master’s degree in marketing and digital media, eight marketing certifications, and a deep education in trauma-informed care, holistic health, and herbalism. I’m also walking the path toward my PhD in natural medicine.

For me, writing is not just craft, it’s a way of tending. Each page is an invitation to slow down, breathe, and remember the wisdom your body already carries. I write for those who want depth without pretense, guidance without pressure, and truth without performance. My work doesn’t promise quick fixes; it offers connection.

Through my books, essays, and creative projects, including Earth & Alchemy, I weave together herbal knowledge, nervous system care, myth, and modern living.

I believe that healing is not a finish line; it’s a way of being in relationship with yourself, with others, and with the earth.

When I’m not writing, I’m raising my three children, homeschooling, dreaming up creative projects, and cultivating Wondervine Studios, my creative home for trauma-informed, soul-centered branding and marketing.

I live for the kind of conversations that dig beneath the surface and for the moments that make us remember we are still, and always have been, connected to something vast and alive.

This is my work, my art, my offering: to write in a way that feels like a hand on your shoulder and a reminder that you already belong here.
