Hey there, bestie!
I'm absolutely thrilled that you're here, and I can't wait to open up and share my journey with you. So, let's get cozy and have a heart-to-heart.
Picture this: I grew up in a cozy, little small-town, you know the kind where everyone knows everyone? Yeah, that was my world. I was always an empath and HSP (highly sensitive person - thanks to toxic upbringing). From a young age, I knew that helping others was my calling, and I've been on a journey to do just that. I was a cheerleader, president of Interact club, and in Big Brother Big Sister -these experiences taught me the power of motivation, teamwork, leadership, empathy, perseverance, and created a desire in me to make a positive impact on people's lives, which has been my guiding star.
After high school, my path led me to Penn State (WE ARE), where I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Human Development and Family Studies. This academic path opened my eyes to the beautiful complexities of human relationships and the profound impact they have on our well-being and how they shape our lives.
Fast forward a bit, and I've spent a decade working in the mental health field. I've been there with individuals battling mental health diagnoses, helping them find their way back to the light. I've helped clients reintegrate into society after experiencing incarceration, encouraging their resilience and determination. I've been a career counselor for high school students, nurturing and guiding them toward their dreams and ambitions. And I've also lent a helping hand to children dealing with behavioral challenges, learning the power of patience and resilience. My journey in this field has been incredibly rewarding, and I've learned the true power of empathy.
But here's where my soul really comes alive: My heart is all about empathy, and my mission is to empower every single woman to become the absolute best version of themselves. I've found my true calling in 1:1 coaching, especially for women who aspire to become mompreneurs and those seeking to live authentically and unapologetically. And you know why I'm so passionate about this? Because I've walked those paths myself…
I know firsthand what it's like trying to find yourself, overcoming self-doubt and finding self-worth. But, I've also found incredible strength and forged my own path through it all. And now, as a mompreneur, I completely understand the constant struggle of balancing motherhood and running a business. It's that ongoing juggling act, wondering if we can handle it all, and cherishing the beautiful chaos that comes with it. I'm on a mission to empower women like never before. So, when you're on this journey with me, you're not just connecting with a coach; you're with a friend who truly gets it and wants nothing but the beset for you.
I have been obsessed with Italy for years, and in 2019 had the privilege of spending my honeymoon there! Italy's charm and culture continue to inspire and enchant me, making it my favorite country -I'd move there if I could. The beauty of the Amalfi Coast and Iconic cityscapes of Rome are unlike anything else. Let's not forget the amazing food, fashion, and history of the beautiful country, too.
I'm sure you weren't surprised that some of my favorite foods are Italian foods...Pasta & gelato speak to my soul. Well, tacos are my go-to because they're like flavor bombs in my mouth – that perfect combo of crunchy, spicy, and savory just hits the spot. And pasta, oh my, it's pure comfort for my soul. The endless sauce options and those perfectly cooked noodles? Irresistible. But gelato, my friend, it's the sweet, creamy dream that completes the trio. The way it melts in your mouth with a burst of flavors – it's like a little piece of heaven in a cone. These three? They're my culinary happy place!
I absolutely adore Lilly Pulitzer. The vibrant and colorful designs bring a burst of joy and energy into my life. Each piece feels like a celebration of summer and sunshine, making me feel confident, bold, and beautiful whenever I wear them. The colors instantly uplift my spirits when I see them. With Lilly, I find a unique and timeless way to express my personality, ensuring that every outfit is a statement of positivity and vibrant self-expression.
My family means everything to me, especially my husband and our daughter. In my husband, I found not just a life partner but a source of unwavering support, love, and companionship through every twist and turn of our journey together. Our daughter, a symbol of beauty, hope and resilience, is a daily reminder that miracles do happen. Together, our family is a testament to the enduring power of love, unity, and the profound joy that comes from overcoming life's most significant trials.
Welcome to a world where hearts race and secrets unfold with every turn of the page. My love for romance and thriller books knows no bounds. I am a hopeless romantic, but I also love suspense and thrill. Both of these genres offer me an escape - Romance novels take me on these heartwarming journeys of love and connection, making me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. On the flip side, thrillers are like mental puzzles that challenge me, keeping me on the edge of my seat as I unravel mysteries and secrets.
I pride myself in shooting with natural light-which means your photos will have a light and airy look or the amazing "golden hour" glow! I LOVE candid shots and I also help with posing to make you feel relaxed and comfortable. All sessions are special and unique so there is no "one size fits all" package. Let's chat to create a unique experience for YOU! I want to help you tell your story! Whether it’s your love story, self-love journey, or your path to success, I want to help you visualize and create a session that captures the story you want to be told!

When I'm not coaching amazing women or capturing beautiful, breathtaking photos, you can find this extroverted introvert at home planning where to travel to next (trying to top our honeymoon in Italy), dancing in the kitchen with my husband while cooking, or cuddling with my babies while watching the DWTS! I love all things summer- beach trips, sunrises and sunsets, hiking, spending time with family and friends, and just being out in the sun. I love the thrill of a good roller coaster and the calmness I get watching the waves crash on the beach.
