I started out working as a floral designer when I was eighteen. Creativity and a deep love for animals seems to be hard-wired into me. Horses and designing were my first real loves. In the early 2000’s I was led to an association training experiential facilitators in the field of equine assisted learning and psychotherapy. My higher education began as soon as I stepped into the arena for a demonstration of that equine model. I’ve been operating as an experiential learner and educator ever since. Along the way I’ve discovered one of the things I enjoy most is to create opportunities to learn for other sentient beings, besides my Self.

Learning by experience Feels like home to me. Conversations and experiences that truly matter feed my soul. By staying present, being curious, and extracting what’s useful to bring my own developmental goals to fruition, I am reconnecting with my best Self, other sentient beings, and living a life I love. This is a hope I carry for everyone.

My practice through Grow Playfully is a continuation of my own learning journey. I aim to learn from all who I work with. I also aim to work my way out of a job with those I work with. Creating dependencies is not one of my goals! My aim is that your experiences through Grow Playfully will lead you to a better understanding of how you show up and what you need to do in order to be your best possible Self, and to live a life you love on and with purpose.
