I'm an avid reader (love all genres), huge food lover (yep! I’m a Yelper!), self-care enthusiast (spas, traveling, or just relaxing at home), and love the outdoors (born and raised in the country).

In my free time, you’ll find me making memories with my son and niece, brunching with the girlfriends, reading one of many books on my booklist, or trying out new recipes I found on TikTok or either a baking show on Netflix. 

After my own struggles with sudden hearing loss and becoming deafened at 28 years old, I learned that the most important part of healing was having someone to talk to who knew what I was feeling without judgment.

I’m not here to tell you that I completely understand exactly what you’re experiencing, because each person’s journey is different. But I understand the parts you can’t put into words, the hard things, feeling left out, or just feeling stuck and unsure on how to move forward. I know the value of finally getting to the place where you feel comfortable and confident in who you are.

If you are anxious about charting the choppy waters of this unknown territory, but are ready to accept and commit to this new life, you’re my people!
