✿ I am a certified clinical herbalist and clinical nutritionist with over three years of experience delivering individualized, effective wellness and nutrition protocols to help address both chronic and acute health complaints.
✿ My love of plants and plant medicine was born in my backyard in the Midwest. Slowly, I learned from and about the plants through the practices of medicine-making, foraging and farming.
✿ I completed my certifications in both clinical herbalism and holistic nutrition at the Colorado School of Clinical Herbalism in early 2020. Through my academic training, I have completed over 1,500 hours of classroom study in subjects like: anatomy and physiology, field botany and plant ID, phytochemistry, holistic nutrition, herbal formulation, medicine making, clinical skills and more.
✿ Accessibility is central to my personal herbal philosophy. I'm a big fan of doing what you can and using what you have. I value thrift, ingenuity, and creativity. I will work with you to find accessible health solutions that fit your unique needs, means and lifestyle.
✿ I am passionate about sharing valuable information about human-plant relationships that fosters resilience in individuals and communities alike. Teaching is my favorite way to share herbalism with others!
