I am happiest somewhere in nature. This is one of the many reasons I feel connected to the power and ritual of herbs. Lumi Tea is my collection of herbal blends.

This collection originated from supporting clients as we worked together in nutritional therapy. Over time, we found benefits, enjoyment, and connection, and my clients wanted to continue to drink the blends created for them. Through this work, I created LUMI herbal tea to support our mind and body in various ways.

I am a Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, certified through the Nutritional Therapy Association, and have completed extensive training with Dr. Aviva Romm in the study of herbs, focusing on women’s wellness. I am also a certified yoga instructor (500 hrs, yin, restorative, meditation, 100 hours of yoga therapy, and self-compassion) and have taught for several years.  Yoga has become an integral part of my life.  This practice continues to guide me in understanding the mind-body connection. I have worked with individuals and groups for several years.

I have spent most of my adult life traveling around as a military spouse. We retired and currently reside in Massachusetts. My husband and I are fortunate to be the parents of three amazing young men. In addition, we have an adorable and loving pup named Finn.
