Decades of personal and professional workshops, retreats, trainings, classes, volunteerism, committees, casual mentorships, pursuing my passions, and navigating the darkest aspects of life have left me with experiences that are vast and varied.  All of this informs the person I am, my gifts, and what I have to share.
