after illness, stress or pandemic restriction
I am empathic, highly-sensitive and intuitive, tapping into unspoken and unexpressed energies that prevent you from feeling your best energetic self. Be heard and understood through sound vibrations to release emotional and physical tension so you can better show up for the people and activities that matter most to you!
My Mission: I want to show the world that playing and experiencing music provides a healthy outlet for expressing our inner thoughts and feelings, inspiring harmony with ourselves and others in order to create a world that celebrates creative expression, empowerment, and improved communication with others.
I help music-lovers release physical and emotional tension so they don't stay stressed out in their free time. When you prioritize time for yourself, I help you experience insight and relaxation so you can better show up for the people that matter most to you and resume activities feeling peacefully energized.
My degrees, certifications, and training include:
Masters in Sound Reiki (Sound Reiki Institute, Toronto)

Master of Music degree (Univ. Wisconsin-Madison)

In 2016, I received the Emerging Creative Talent award for "Leadership in Originality and Innovation in the Creative Industries" (Richmond Hill) for creating:
1) a Sound Healing program for long-term care residents with dementia and
2) the Clearly Musical Home Concert series for "unique, up-close musical experiences that cannot be matched in large concert halls" (2016-2020).
In 2020, I served as a Crisis Response frontline healthcare worker at long-term care homes in Toronto during Covid-19 outbreaks. I've held emotional space for staff, patients and visitors to express resistance, restriction, anger, stress, loss, overwhelm and anxiety while encouraging them to experience present-moment mindfulness and joy.
And, I became a featured Rz Expert with the Reset Zone mobile app, sharing Sound Healing Energy 1-minute videos to reset your (difficult) emotions. I look forward to sharing music and sound with you!
