My interest in health began at a young age, as a young competitive gymnast as I quickly learned the value of being physically and mentally on top of my game. 

​

As peculiar as it sounds, even as a kid I always loved eating a diet rich in vegetables and fruits. Possibly this was a seed planted early on as I was raised in a small agricultural community tucked beside the Sespe Mountains in Southern California. Some of my fondest memories are of my sister and I climbing up my great grandmother's tree to pick apricots, or riding horses through neighboring citrus orchards with my grandfather to find oranges and avocados.  I recognized now that those powerful memories fueled my passion to share the key to thriving by incorporating nature & nutrition.

​

There have been periods of my life where I moved away from clean healthful eating, and experienced the negative side effects. More cravings, more self loathing and negativity, less energy, less love for myself and those around me. 

 

I experienced an eating disorder. 

I experienced weight gain.

I experienced irritable bowel syndrome. 

 

Over the years, I have been able to target successful methods to tap back into the positivity, the love, and to expand on those positive connections between the impact our gut health and our mental well being.  I have learned that once you have all five key pillars in order, your soul is fully aligned and all health goals are within your grasp.
