My passion is to teach people how to achieve optimal health by reconnecting with nature and promoting food as medicine. After spending 30+ years practicing traditional pharmacy, I knew there must be something more than the “pill for an ill” mentality which never gets to the root cause of the problem. This led me to pursue functional medicine and herbalism, and I became an Institute For Functional Medicine Certified Practitioner (IFMCP) along with the AARM (Association for the Advancement of Restorative Medicine)Herbal Fellowship Certification

My goal goes beyond treating the individual since we can only truly heal if the environment in which we live is a healthy one. My husband and I have both left the corporate world to start our little “farm” in the middle of suburbia, and our hope is that we can teach more people to grow food for themselves and their communities.

Since all health begins in the gut, I offer wellness consultations for individuals and groups which focus on healing the microbiome through nutrition, lifestyle and the use of supplements. I encourage in-person appointments with the hope to inspire you to grow your own food and let it be your medicine!
