Get To Know Me:

I believe every individual has a unique story of challenges and triumphs and mine is no exception.

Growing up, I struggled with body image and self-esteem. On the outside, I smiled. On the inside, I was exhausted.

My energy was low. My cravings controlled me. My happiness depended on the number on the scale even when I knew that this is not way to live. In my teens, without proper guidance or support, I fell into unhealthy eating patterns and yo-yo dieting. At the same time, I watched my father struggle with Type 2 Diabetes. That became the turning point that pushed me into a lifelong quest to understand health at a deeper level.

After completing my Master’s in Microbiology, I continued studying nutrition and wellness. I learned about calories, macros, and calorie deficits. But something didn’t add up. If weight loss were simply calories in versus calories out, why didn’t everyone following the same diet and exercise plan see the same results?

That question changed my life.

I realized:
Health is not just about quantity, it’s about quality. It’s about hormones, digestion, inflammation, metabolism, stress, sleep, environment, emotions, and individuality and there is no one size fits all approach. That realization led me to Ayurveda, the ancient science that finally answered the questions modern nutrition could not.

The Transformation

Through years of study, personal experimentation, and deep inner work, I transformed my life.

Today, in my late 50s:

• I am 70 pounds lighter

• My PCOS resolved

• My prediabetes reversed

• I sleep deeply

• I move with ease

• I feel clear, vibrant, energized and grounded

And I maintained these results even through menopause without crash diets, extremes, or burnout.

But the real transformation wasn’t just physical.

I rebuilt my confidence.
I learned self-compassion.
I stopped fighting my body and started honoring it.

Why I Do This Work

I know what it feels like to:

• Bounce from one diet to the next, only to regain the weight and then some.

• Compare yourself constantly.

• Hide behind baggy clothes.

• Tired of never finding clothes you love in a size that fits.

• Live in constant fear of people tearing you down for how your body looks.

• Struggle with blood sugar spikes, inflammation, hormonal imbalances, low energy, constant cravings.

• Wonder if things will ever change.

I also know healing is possible.

Like the Japanese art of kintsugi, where broken pottery is repaired with gold, I believe our wounds can become our strength. My struggles became my wisdom. My pain became my purpose. Today, with over 10 degrees and certifications in health and wellness — including NBC-HWC Board Certification and training as a Certified Ayurvedic Wellness Practitioner, I’ve made it my mission to guide others on their own path to healing.

My vision is simple:

I work alongside licensed healthcare professionals to support people navigating complex health challenges — helping them restore balance, rebuild energy, and feel at home in their bodies again.
