My Story

I’d love to hear yours soon!

I’m a mommy to three cuties, sharing this busy, beautiful life with my husband of 10 years. Outside of work and off my yoga mat, my time is full of less-than-glamorous, meaningful moments: packing lunches, prepping dinner, folding endless amounts of laundry, playing baby dolls, being turned into a human jungle gym, and catching up with the people I love along the way. I’m a longtime yogi (20 years and counting!) and love to start my day journaling with a cup of coffee before the sun comes up.

I'm an occupational therapist (OT) who has always been drawn to the depth, creativity, and holistic nature of the profession. I earned my bachelor’s, master’s, and doctoral degrees from Boston University (proud triple Terrier!). For over 15 years, I’ve worked in the field, continually inspired by the ways OTs support people in living meaningful, engaged lives.

Today, I am a professor dedicated to preparing the next generation of OTs with not only strong clinical knowledge and skills, but also the compassion, presence, and client-centered values that lie at the heart of meaningful and transformative care.

So how did I become interested in intuition, and what does that have to do with my background in OT?

I've always been fascinated by the ways we know things before we can fully explain them. The subtle gut feelings, internal nudges, and moments of clarity that seem to arise from somewhere beyond conscious thought. Over time, I became curious about where these experiences come from and how we can cultivate a stronger connection to them.

I began seeking out mentors, teachers, trainings, podcasts, and books to explore this sense of inner knowing more intentionally. I prioritized practices that helped me slow down and turn inward, including  journaling, meditation, and yoga. Through these practices, I explored the deeper layers of myself, reconnected with my purpose, and learned how to listen to the quiet wisdom within that is so often drowned out by the noise of everyday life.

At the heart of OT is supporting meaningful engagement in daily life. As I deepened my connection to my inner knowing, I began to notice something powerful. My days felt more intentional, my path became clearer, I trusted my decisions more deeply, and I experienced a greater sense of fulfillment and alignment.

This personal growth naturally extended into my professional life and sparked a curiosity about how these practices might complement and enhance traditional OT approaches. I began weaving mindfulness, intuitive reasoning, and self-reflection into my work with clients and students, creating opportunities for deeper self-awareness and meaningful growth.

My passion became helping others reconnect with their inner knowing, uncover meaningful insights, and translate those discoveries into intentional action, sustainable habits and routines, and more meaningful engagement in daily life.

I look forward to supporting you on your own unique journey of self-discovery!
