After a 27 year career in the hospitality industry I began studying death work and became a certified Death Doula, providing holistic, family-led end of life services. I advocate for individuals with a terminal diagnosis, and for families during bereavement. I also support grievers to find peace and joy during pain and grief. In May of 2024 I opened the Grounded Death Advocate and recently made the decision to study mortuary science. I currently attend Goodwin University in East Hartford, CT. In my spare time I enjoy hiking, traveling, and gardening.
