Bio

I lost my sister at fifteen years old. Over two decades later, I’m here to share our divine story. I love teaching teleseminars and providing grief coaching to spread the profound healing I’ve received since my sister’s death. Her passing has given me the courage to take risks, dream big, be adventurous, and savor every moment. She’s taught me to experience life to the fullest, and my life has taken on more profound meaning as I live for two, baby!

I’m not a complete “woo-woo.” I’m really a corporate “guru”…

I like numbers, facts, and making sales. I’m a computer geek and a business professional with IBM. I’m also a wife and a mother of two glorious boys. And, I happen to talk to my dead sister all day. You know…typical, everyday stuff.

I started climbing the corporate ladder as a graphics designer twenty years ago at a small engineering firm and quickly moved up to network system administrator for the second largest financial institution in Pittsburgh. I developed computer programs, including applications in Lotus Notes. For the past ten years, I’ve been an IBM technical sales engineer and software architect. Throughout my tenure, I’ve been a highly respected coach, mentor, trusted advisor, consultant, and certified professional interfacing with people from around the world.

I’m also a bit of a healer (level II Reiki certified, and a certified spiritual healer). I’m schooled on Angelic forms (Angels, Archangels, Guardian Angels), spiritual beings, Ascended Masters, Elementals, Goddesses, among others. I’ve attended the Internal Guidance System (IGS) training to further understand how I can best bring my dreams and desires to fruition. And, to further expand my effectiveness with the public, I’m currently working to become a certified personal coach through the International Coach Federation.

Mainly, though, I’ve found myself coaching people anywhere and everywhere and hearing that my suggestions helped! This further cemented my realization of how precious the gift of life-after-death is, and how this awareness brings: joy, peace, happiness, spirituality, confidence, and faith into people’s lives. It’s from this place that my teleseminars, radio show, personal coaching practice (and my coming book) came into being. I’m honored you’ve chosen to stop and visit, and can’t wait to “meet” you soon over the phone or in person!

Q&A

My passion and life mission is to help others “turn pain into peace.” Specifically, turn the pain and deep emotions from the death of a loved one into a peaceful, healing energy. I am an author, speaker, personal coach and spiritual teacher. I teach and empower others to, on their own, reach out and connect to loved ones on the other side. I provide guidance, techniques and exercises on these topics, as well as how to love one self, be more spiritual and to live a more fulfilled life. I do this via my weekly live radio shows on SQR.FM, my teleseminars, and my personal and life coaching practice. I also expand on these subjects via articles, newsletters and my blog. I am currently writing a book, which will be an easy guide to communicating with the other side ‘on your own.’ I am also a professional business woman working as a Software Architect with a fortune 500 company, and I have been in the IT industry for over 19 years.

In this competitive world, what sets your business apart?

I empower others to turn their pain, from the death of a loved one, in to peace. The uniqueness of my message and teachings is each person out there (no matter the age, gender, nationality, religion) has the ability to have a “direct” connection with their loved ones on the other side. No special powers needed; no third party intermediary required. 75% of the world’s population believe in life-after-death. The majority of believers is based on communicating with the other side through psychics or mediums. The remaining small percentage believes and/or realizes that you can receive messages from loved ones on the other side, however, may not understand the power and inspiration from a two-way communication. I focus on empowering others to heal from their loss; to re-connect with their true, divine high self; to understand spirituality and spiritual connections with the other side; and to reach out and connect with their loved ones on the other side, “on their own” and “in their own time.”

Who is your ideal customer?

My ideal customer is any person in this world. Everyone is going to experience the death of a loved one at some point or another in their life. Everyone is going to need to understand how they can turn the pain they experience from their loss into a healthy energy that inspires them to move forward.
