Music Therapist, Author, Speaker, ….

I have a love of storytelling about living and grieving. For me, there is no separation. I am passionate about recognizing compelling moments that inspire and provoke us to consider what living is all about. 

Through my writing, I strive to help people recognize they have the opportunity to unlock their true potential in every changing moment to become…. 

By exploring the realities of life, death, and everything in between, I believe we can discover how to pause along the way in order to realize who we are in one moment and who we are becoming in the next. Each of us has the ability to lift our veil and see that within our grasp is a beautiful life built on all the moments that so often get overlooked. 

For 15 years, as a music therapist and educator, I worked in hospice care with adults and children, and the professionals who served them. Whether living at home, within a hospice, nursing or hospital facility, the people I served shared their hopes, dreams, worries, and fears. They shared their wisdom about living life in health and in illness. They shared their hearts. 

Now,  years later, I still feel their heart-felt stories and they have shaped my own life. My latest book weaves together many of their reflections highlighting the importance of becoming who we are in the meantime.
