My background is rooted in psychological neuroscience, where I’ve worked as a researcher and co-authored multiple publications. I’ve even had the opportunity to contribute to research on psilocybin, deepening my understanding of its potential to transform one’s psyche. While the bulk of my professional background is in academic research, I’ve also gotten outside the proverbial ivory tower with work in business-to-business sales and education.

Beyond the lab, my curiosity and sense of fun has always extended into the larger questions of existence. I’ve spent years exploring psychology, philosophy, metaphysical science, and religion in search of common threads and mechanisms that could be useful in living an extraordinary life. Keeping a sense of levity and humor is also important to me, so I always make time for laughs with friends. Meditation, hiking, and music are my touchstones, keeping me grounded as I continue to grow. Most recently, I’ve been working toward certification as a yoga instructor and performing original music at local venues.

I “hold space” with a calm, grounding presence in order to offer clients the care, knowledge, and support they need to discover their own inner truths through the lens of psilocybin. Tailoring the experience toward a person’s unique needs is a top priority of mine.

I believe that music is the heartbeat of a psilocybin session and shapes the emotional landscape of the experience–fortunately, curating this sonic journey is one of my greatest strengths, which is a sentiment my clients have echoed with enthusiasm. Additionally, I’m an advocate of “standing on the shoulders of giants,” so I keep up to date on contemporary research and am well-read on the work produced in previous eras. In these ways and more, my approach is both intuitive and informed. I take the time to truly understand those I work with, share knowledge to empower their path, and offer genuine care from the heart.
