This is Who I am

A little bit about me


When people ask me how I got into this work, the answer is never simple. I come from a background in real estate and architectural operations. I’ve always loved homes, buildings, spaces, and the feeling of their story. Even before I understood energy, the way I do now, I could walk into a house and feel things. What story did it have to tell or history. Some homes felt light and expansive, while others felt heavy, sad, tense, or stuck. At the time, I didn’t fully understand why. Then my life changed completely.


Last year, my brother passed away in a motorcycle accident. It was sudden, horrific, and truly heartbreaking. My brother and I were 14 years apart in age, and for most of our lives we weren’t especially close. But before he died, we had just started reconnecting and reconciling parts of our past. It felt like we were finally beginning again. And then he was gone. That was one of the hardest things for me to accept. We had just reopened the door to each other.


At the same time all of this was happening, I had just started my Geotune certification. I was learning to dowse, to feel energy, to read the subtle shifts in spaces and land. During that period, I met an incredible channeler who told me something that completely stayed with me:


“Your brother is with you. He’s going to help guide you into this new world you’re about to step into.”


She told me I would still work in the field I loved, but in a completely different way. That I would work with people I genuinely connected with and people who liked me for my authentic self. After that, I went down the rabbit hole fast.

I wanted to learn everything.


Feng Shui. Frequencies. Sound healing. Quartz crystal bowls. Sacred geometry. Human Design. Dowsing. Geobiology. Spiritual practices across religions and cultures. The deeper I went, the more everything started connecting together in ways I couldn’t ignore.

And during that process, I realized something else:


I’m a medium.


Not in the way people usually think. I don’t sit here seeing full apparitions walking through rooms. My experience is much more feeling-based. I’m clairsentient more than clairvoyant. I feel emotions, impressions, words, energy, and images in my mind. I feel the presence of spirit deeply.


To be honest, a lot of my journey hasn’t been about “opening” this gift, it’s been about learning how to protect myself from it. Learning how to keep spirits from overwhelming me, entering my space, attaching to me, or constantly trying to communicate in public. That alone has been an entire journey, and probably its own future post.


For a long time, I kept this side of myself quiet. I sidelined it because I knew once you tell people you work in energy or communicate with spirit, they look at you differently. And maybe they should. It is different. But over time, I’ve started finding the people, who feel what I feel. The people who understand me for me. The people who believe in me and the work I’m doing.


And I’m beginning to realize this gift has always been with me. I just didn’t have language for it before. Human Design has also become a huge part of how I understand myself now. I’m a Manifesting Generator, and looking back on my life, I realize I’ve always been able to call in what I truly desired. The job I really wanted.The house I really wanted. The car I really wanted.


But what I didn’t understand back then was that manifestation has two sides. Yes, I got the house I desperately wanted, but it was a fixer upper. Yes, I got the car I wanted, but it had a blown water pump that I unknowingly drove on for weeks. I’ve learned that manifestation isn’t just about wanting something badly enough. It’s about alignment. It’s about the energy, intention, and emotional frequency behind what we call in. That realization changed everything for me.


Now, this work feels fun and meaningful in a way I can’t fully explain. I get to help people feel good in their homes. I get to help homes release grief and stagnant energy. I get to help spaces connect with the right buyers. I get to help people reconnect with themselves, their intuition, and sometimes even with spirit. Most of all, I get to help people feel less alone in experiences they thought nobody else could understand.


So this is me finally stepping out from the side lines and saying:

This is who I am.

This is the work I do.

And I’m here to help.
