My Story
Ayahuasca Journey:
2011 to Present Day
My life took a new direction towards my current path in 2011 when I decided to go to Peru for the purpose of self healing with Ayahuasca. During my visit, the experiences had left me contemplating fundamental questions about life and the nature of our existence. This led me into several years of introspective work with this medicine to this day.
​
While seeking help from years of necessary self-work, I was initially only aware of my symptoms. Unbeknownst to me for quite some time, ayahuasca had been gradually addressing the root cause and eventually guided me into finding life purpose.
​
Today, my journey with ayahuasca continues to progress in my growth, direction, and developing a deeper understanding of plant wisdom.

Herbal Medicine Path
2014 to Present Day
Having found purpose, the path of herbal medicine serendipitously aligned into my life. My path of supporting the health and well-being of others became clear as my focus was directed towards understanding and gaining knowledge of Western herbal medicine.
​
In 2016, I graduated from the Clinical Herbalist program at the Institute of Traditional Medicine in Toronto, Ontario where I developed my foundation and passion for this practice.
​
My interest in herbal medicine continues to fascinate me as I have understood it to be such a logical approach to supporting wellness, yet it has been so unrealized in Western culture. As I continue on my path of self study to develop my understanding of herbal medicine, it is my hope and intention to share my experiences along the way.

Stepping into Travel:
2018 to Present Day
In pursuit of my life journey, the next step became apparent and so, I made the decision to leave my home of Toronto and continue on my path as a traveler.
​
In retrospect, I never would have anticipated how life has and continues to transpire since my initial visit to Peru several years ago. However, it is with purpose, commitment and trust that has revealed a deeply meaningful life of which I feel privileged to be guided into.
​
In 2018, I took the next step and began a life of travel, self-study, and personal growth as I explore new places and opportunities!
