The Story…

I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area and was raised by my Indonesian grandmother in an Eastern household that practiced the ancient art of Feng Shui, which made me aware, from a very young age, of the power and benefits of working with energy.

All my life I have been drawn to the creative arts. I have been, and still am, an artist and designer. I have been a photography apprentice (with Ansel Adams’ assistant Orrin Moon), I’ve played Bass and Guitar, in the San Francisco and Los Angels music scene—even ending up on MTV. I have also authored a book honoring my Grandmothers teachings, entitled “Grandmother’s Feng Shui Wisdom: Teaching the Dragon Ways” (Red Wheel/Weiser). I live to create and to help others create themselves anew.

I was exposed to the very open minded artistic expression that the San Francisco Bay Area is renown for. Within my cross-cultural family and upbringing, I had the perfect supportive creative influences in which to cultivate my work as a burgeoning healer and artist. Living in a Western Culture within an Eastern household influenced me in so many positive ways that I embraced the best of both worlds and infused them into my expanding healing and artistic endeavors.

Eventually I moved my home to New Mexico, where I currently live, and began a new journey of asking big questions and seeking even bigger answers. This insatiable curiosity led me to years of studying with a myriad of gifted teachers in the the area of energy and healing. Those influences and teachings, helped me discover and cultivate the self-created work I currently offer to my clients.

I have often been whisked away by the exotic callings of other countries and cultures, and have searched the world over for healing, wisdom and answers to satiate the burning desire to attain a feeling of deeper knowing. I always felt that there was more to life to be discovered than just it’s outer expression.

Subsequently, I have embraced the wisdom imbued by my grandmother, the wide-ranging teachings and energy knowledge of healers I have studied with in Asia, studied Tibetan Body Balancing, Ayurvedic Beauty, Theta Healing, and became a Feng Shui Expert and Reiki Master, all of which has enabled me to create a personally unique and dynamic healing practice that I offer though my gentle, insightful one-on-one sessions.
