responsible for the development of celiac disease.  The diagnosis of celiac disease gave me insight and helped me to connect the dots of my past health history. I made a choice to empower myself to gain knowledge and to seek clinic work with a Functional Medicine Practitioner to understand this condition and how to heal the body holistically. I was passionate to learn how to approach, identify, and be empowered with knowledge.  I decided to become a Functional Medicine Certified Health Coach.  On a personal note, my mother passed away from colon cancer in 2010 (I believe she was Celiac too, without a diagnosis). My world was full of questions unanswered about my health and my mom's illness until I discovered the vital connection of healing with Functional Medicine. Functional Medicine gave me my life back; this was the missing piece of the puzzle in my health and now I am more than passionate to be part of a mission to help those who seek answers. I have had the privilege to gain experience in working in a Functional Medicine clinic implementing the practices of health coaching with successful results. My coaching sessions are about empowering my clients to become aware of their lifestyle choices and helping them reach their health goals.  Let's connect and get your positive health journey started today!
