ABOUT me
As a former clothing designer and beauty marketing executive, it took me two careers of focusing on the exterior to realize that no matter how good the outfit looks, or how perfect the skin and makeup appear, unless we know we are beautiful from the inside out, there is no fashion or revolutionary cosmetic that can convince us otherwise.
When we feel Love from the inside, however, we remember that we are not only “worth it”, we have the power to continuously refine and enrich our inner beauty so it never fades.
The healthy glow that lasts forever comes from mastery of one’s energy. When the physical, mental, and emotional bodies come together and resonate in harmony, we transmit a frequency of Peace and natural beauty that requires no accessories, and makeup is totally optional.
When I heard the inner call to radically transform my life about nine years ago, I picked up and said yes. I took the leap into the void. I stopped being who I thought I was. I allowed my identity, my career, and many relationships to die, so I could experience a new version of myself.
I saw the pandemic lockdown as a golden opportunity to pause everything and be completely alone with myself so that in the void of nothing, I could begin to understand who I really am and why my Soul sent me here.
My new book shares some of the answers I received and how I am putting them into action. My intention for this book is to share what I have learned and remembered along my path to encourage the next wave of pioneers to take the leap, cross the border out of fear, and discover the truth of who they are and the real purpose they have being here now.

THE BACK STORY OF MY MAKEOVER
I received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City and worked as a clothing designer in New York and Paris for over a decade before returning to school to pursue a master’s in business administration, which I received from New York University, Stern School of Business. In my second career, I was a marketing executive in the beauty industry for over 17 years, working in New York, Paris, and Amsterdam.
One Monday morning in 2016, I was sitting at my desk at work when I heard a very loud, inner call direct me to, “Stop being who you think you are. Quit this job. Go home and discover the truth.” I was not happy with my career, or life in general, so I did. For about a year, I did nothing but read A Course in Miracles and attend live talks offered by Marianne Williamson at Marble Collegiate.
Then, when my savings began to run out, Life redirected me to a job in Boston, a city I had never visited, to work for a company I had never heard of. I said yes to this opportunity because it felt right. One year later, while making dinner one evening, I began to speak out loud from a source of inner knowledge that felt familiar to me yet totally foreign at the same time. This voice had much to share, so these monologues continued regularly for several months. At a point, I began recording and transcribing the information I spoke, until there were stacks of hundreds and hundreds of sheets of paper all over my apartment.
To give me the time and space to discover what was in these transcripts and what to do with them, Life reorganized itself to allow me the financial freedom to quit my job again and step out of my “normal” routine to begin a 6-year sabbatical of inner self-discovery.
Not long after, the COVID pandemic began. In quarantine, I wrote from my inner inspiration for another two years nonstop. Then, I stayed in my own self-imposed isolation for about three more years to rewrite and refine the messages I received.
Before this, I had no “spiritual practice” or interest in any organized religion; however, throughout this period, I was drawn to study with many well-known spiritual teachers from both eastern and western philosophies to better understand what I was writing about. Everything changed for me when I had the great opportunity to meet a living master, Jagadguru Her Holiness Sai Maa Lakshmi Devi Mishra.
With the grace of Sai Maa’s Love, guidance, and infinite wisdom, it eventually became clear to me that the information I had been receiving all this time was a path to transform my consciousness that I was to follow and share with others. My first book details the path of the energetic makeover I was guided to move through and holds the intention to support all who choose to say yes when Life calls them to begin their adventure into a new future.

I have overcome the world.”
