Let’s start off with some real talk:

Death is going to happen to all of us. I know, I don’t like it either.

My philosophy is that we are all guaranteed the same exact two things: a first breath and a last breath. We make a plan to provide a “good life” for ourselves by considering things like or preparing for furthering our education, starting a business, forging a career, creating a family, traveling, health and/or retirement; why should planning for end of life be any different?

It is my experience the end of life process brings anxiety and confusion. I am here to be your guide by offering compassion, experience and support as we discuss what is important to you and how you want to manage your affairs. How do you want to prepare yourself for a “good death”?

I have over 25 years of business experience and have been a lifelong student of alternative healing arts. In addition to my Bachelors degree in Speech Communication and Cultural Studies from the University of Wisconsin-Superior, I have received my End of Life Doula certification from the University of Vermont, End of Life Doula for companion animals certification from the University of Vermont, Aging and Thanatology certification from the University of Maryland-Baltimore and my Reiki certifications from the Northwest Healing Studio. I am an ordained minister and have been a hospice volunteer since 2018 serving people and dogs.

I look forward to working with you!
