At the heart of my work is a deep belief that the Divine is intimately personal—gently nudging us, drawing us, encouraging us toward our truest selves. I came to know this in one of the hardest seasons of my life—when my beloved, yet complicated father was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer while I was going through a painful divorce. As my world came apart, small moments of unexpected grace kept appearing: quiet reassurances that helped me keep going and taught me to notice the presence of the Sacred in my everyday life.

Those moments changed me. They led me to pursue a Master of Divinity and become a hospital chaplain. For nearly 20 years, I was privileged to serve as the end-of-life chaplain at University of North Carolina Hospitals, walking alongside people facing serious illness, loss, and life's most tender transitions. I also created the hospital's first adult bereavement support service, offering grief resources, support groups, and compassionate follow-up care.

My work is shaped by what I've witnessed in others and lived myself. I know how much it matters to have a safe, unhurried, confidential space to find your way forward—at your own pace. Whoever you are and whatever kind of loss you're carrying, you’re welcome here.

I also officiate weddings and memorials, honoring the full circle of life; these grew naturally out of my chaplaincy, and creativity and intuition run through all of it.

Everything I offer—ceremonies, retreats, workshops, writing circles, and one-on-one coaching—comes from this same place: sacred space for deep listening, gentle guidance, and steady support. I see my role as a bridge, connecting you with your own inner wisdom, with others, and with what helps you thrive.
