I am ACC credentialed with the International Coaching Federation. I also have a master’s degree in education & library science, owned two personal training studios—one in Stamford, CT and the other in Kent, CT. 

For two years I was the host of a weekly internet radio show called “What’s Weighing You Down” where I interviewed individuals who overcame life changing catastrophes.  I am  the author of 2 inspirational books—"Pain, Purpose, Passion: that was then, this is now” whose stories are based on the interviews from her radio show. Later Ipublished “Mac ‘N Cheese: mini morsels for positive performance.”  I collaborated on another book and co-authored “Saved by Sport.” All books are available on Amazon.com. 

For the past several years, I have virtually coached individuals with chronic health conditions: cancer, heart disease, smoking addiction, stress reduction, high cholesterol, diabetes and supported their fitness, nutrition, sleep hygiene as a personal trainer and wellness coach. 

I help individuals set personal and professional goals that are achievable. I enjoy writing for personal empowerment and resiliency growth. I coach people who want to explore their options, expand their awareness, and evolve into their authentic selves.

 I continue to stay current with health trends and take courses in my field of expertise. Over the years, I have worked closely with physicians, functional medicine doctors and alternative healthcare providers to create workshops, challenges and fairs to educate the communities in which I lived to enjoy a more productive, energetic, and purposeful life. 

I specialize in optimizing performance at home or work through lasting behavioral change.
