My career has lived at the intersection of design and technology — spanning advertising, consulting, web development, and branding before moving into technology leadership at a public health research organization focused on sexual health for LGBTQ+ youth. The work mattered, but over time it led to burnout and a quiet but persistent feeling that I needed to be closer to people.

That turning point brought me to psychedelic-assisted work. I was drawn to it not just for its potential, but for the level of care, responsibility, and intention it requires. I approach this work with humility and a genuine commitment to supporting others in a way that is safe, ethical, and grounded.

I’ve completed intensive, in-person training in psychedelic facilitation that combined structured coursework with supervised, experiential practice. This included both personal process work and hands-on facilitation alongside an experienced lead guide, allowing me to develop practical skills in a real-world setting.

My training included:

• Screening and contraindications
• Preparation and intention-setting
• Dosage considerations
• Set and setting
• Crisis response and stabilization
• Ethical boundaries and scope of practice

All of this was grounded in a trauma-informed, harm-reduction framework. I received direct feedback throughout the process and gained experience in a supervised environment, which continues to inform how I support others today. Since then, I’ve continued supporting individual and small group sessions in independent settings over the past several years.

I bring a calm, steady presence to this work, with a strong focus on safety, trust, and respect for each person’s process. My intention is to create a space where people feel supported, cared for, and able to explore their experience with confidence.

Outside of this work, I’m a musician, cook, and outdoors enthusiast. I value time in nature, creative expression, and the simple, meaningful moments that help people feel connected to themselves and each other.
