My spiritual journey began with a deep thirst for wisdom and radical self-healing. As a Native American of the Lowcountry and a descendant of the Edisto Indians and the Indigenous Gullah/Geechee people, I grew up in a village surrounded by wise Elders, many cousins, and wonderful friends.

I always sensed a deeper truth—something more. The Elders in my community carried faith and wisdom that extended beyond what they could express in words. My early teachers were nurturing and inspired my lifelong love of education and learning. I followed a traditional path through higher education, earning degrees within the Western educational system. My work in urban communities across metro Atlanta and as a professor in higher education strengthened my passion for service and teaching. Developing innovative ways to guide my students awakened an even deeper quest within me.

The guidance of many gifted spiritual teachers led me toward greater depth and radical self-forgiveness, awakening my passion for energy medicine.

My first experience clearing a childhood friend’s home—and the events that followed—drew me further into metaphysics and energy work.

I find deep fulfillment in helping others navigate spiritual awakening, cultivate self-awareness, and reconnect with their authentic selves.
