My Story

I have always known that whatever career path I chose, I would be of service to others. When I was a kid and people asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up, among my answers were “doctor”, “nurse”, or “teacher”. It was evident that the theme within all of these professions was the same– to be of service to others.

As I grew older, my mission remained the same, however, the vision I had for the way I would live out that mission changed. I didn’t become a doctor, or a nurse, but I did find interest in understanding the human mind and I became curious about why we do what we do as human beings. Because of this, I spent my time in undergrad studying psychology, later graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology at the University of California San Diego. Upon graduating I thought I had a clear roadmap for my future, with a defined plan to become a licensed therapist. However, as life often goes, things didn’t unfold the way I anticipated.

I spent a few years working in a neuroscience lab after graduating and due to personal circumstances, I moved back in with my parents at the age of 25 and started working at my first corporate job. I was grateful to have a good paying job and I knew I was good at what I did but after almost three years in the same position, I started to feel unfulfilled. Somewhere along the way I had lost sight of my purpose in life, my mission. I couldn’t shake the feeling that I was meant for something more. Was I meant to stay at this corporate job forever? Is there something better out there for me?

This marked a pivotal moment in my life. I didn’t know it at the time, but I was going through a deep identity shift. I was transitioning into a new phase of my life, a total dismantling of what I knew to be real and true for me at the time. I took a hard, honest look at myself—my beliefs, my fears, and the trajectory of my life and I knew it was time for me to fulfill my purpose.

I was in need of guidance during this period, so I dove headfirst into the self-development world. I read books about personal growth, listened to podcasts, followed mindset and manifestation coaches on Instagram, started practicing yoga and meditation, took breathwork classes, and began to change the way I showed up for myself every day.

By implementing these new practices and knowledge into my routine, I was able to heal, grow, and become a better version of myself. I was inspired by the work I saw many coaches do online and was especially fascinated by the way their work impacted others. I saw the impact it had on my life and I knew I wanted to do the same thing for others. It was then when I decided I was ready to become a coach and help others work on themselves and life the life of their dreams.
In late 2020 I started my own coaching business.

The thought of starting my own business was completely daunting to me but I knew I had to start somewhere! The first thing I did was research everything there is to know about starting a coaching business and I invested in different programs and trainings that helped me refine my coaching skills. I shared my new venture with friends and family and started to embody my new role as a coach. Over time my clientele grew thanks to referrals from past clients. Then in April 2021 I decided to take a chance on myself and the vision I had for my life. I left my corporate job and dove into my business full time. I am now four years into my business and with each day that passes I am grateful to my past self for making the decision to embark on this journey!
