“Why?” My entire life this has been my favorite question. For as long as I can remember I have searched to understand the world, more specifically, to understand myself, others, and how every individual person can tap into their own unique gifts and effortlessly create a life of love.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

-Marianne Williamson

My Story

At 16, I was at the peak of my riding career and considered one of the top 3 junior equestrians in the world. At 14, I made the decision to home school so I spend 6 days a week, 10+ hours a day at the barn, and travel the circuit with my horses and trainers. I was completely committed to my riding career and my dedication helped me cultivate time management skills which lead to me graduating high school a year and a half early. Life was going according to plan until I took a bad fall. Misread x-rays and MRI’s lead to 8 months me ignoring my body and “riding through the pain” in order to reach my next goal: competition in the Junior Olympics.

Two weeks before the Junior Olympics I was on course and suddenly lost feeling in the lower half of my body. As I sat in the Doctors office, I found out I had broken two vertebre in my back and every time I got on a horse I was causing nerve damage. I was determined to push through the pain until after the Junior Olympics, until the Doctor then gave me the choice that changed my life forever, “You can never ride again, or never walk again.” The next day I said goodbye to my horses and suddenly found myself questioning, “What is my purpose?”

At the time I had no idea that my life was happening for me and this was the first step on my journey of discovering me.

I graduated from the University of Miami in 2015 with my Masters of Science in Taxation. I spent 5 years studying something I thought I liked, and yet, the closer I got to graduation, the more I realized I felt empty inside. I didn’t understand how I could feel so lost after dedicating years of my life to something. I started to hate myself for not understanding that I wasn’t happy because Tax wasn’t my calling.

After working in Finance for a year, I decided to take time off to travel- I had everything planned out to backpack through Southeast Asia for for 9 months. Looking back now, I cannot help laugh that life was happening for me. 10 days into my trip I became sick, I tried to continue traveling until I ultimately was so sick I had to be hospitalized and sent home. What started off as a curse turned into lifes greatest gift. I was forced to hit rock bottom and question everything which lead me to deeply working on myself.

In December of 2017, I went to a Tony Robbins event and saw that even in my darkest hour, I knew I was here to do something more. I made my first major investment in myself and signed up to be a Platinum Partner.

Through my year with Tony, dove into all the teachings I could get my hands on. I spent over 100 days in Tony Events AND attended events like S-Factor, O&O Academy, Alison Armstrong, and John Wineland. I hired my incredible coach who holds the space for the divine masculine in my life. I learned about embodiment and archetypes and that I can have childlike innocence in one moment and a Queen in the next. I made friends from all over the world, traveled to placed beyond my wildenest dreams, and through my journeys I found my way home- my way back to me. I realized that to my core, I have this inherent belief that none of us are broken. Yet, we all have the ability to become more.

Since then I have made it my life’s purpose to light up the world with more love and radiance.

I cannot wait to see where this journey continues to take me and I hope you join me in this wild ride.

I believe that the more we give, the more we get back. Everyday I intentionally focus on sharing more and more of my light with the world and inspiring others to do the same.
