Welcome!

The Work:

I help clients learn to work consciously with their innate creative power and to shape their lives through presence, choice, and aligned action. This is NOT about motivation or manifestation. It is about transformation led by presence, held by wisdom, and guided by trust. 

Rather than offering methods to fix or improve oneself, together, we create conditions for natural change—where clarity emerges, creative action arises organically, and life reorganizes from the inside out. 

Honoring human timing, while respects inner intelligence, this approach invites people to live from a deeper, quieter source of creative power.

A Life Illuminated by Lightning

At seventeen, I was struck by lightning.

Riding my bike home from a summer job, a sudden storm erupted. A three-pronged fork of lightning hit me directly, throwing me into the air. I landed on my feet and ran home, leaving behind a twisted mass of metal in the road.

That moment changed everything.

I didn’t have language for it then, but it awakened me to the living field of energy that moves through and surrounds all life. In the years that followed, my body carried the imprint of that shock. Thunder triggered pain, panic, and shutdown—patterns that shaped how I met life’s unexpected challenges well into adulthood.

Returning to the Source

Over time, I developed a deep love of light. As the daughter of a professional photographer, I learned to study it closely. Yet I felt disconnected from its inner source—awareness itself.

Like many people, I searched for comfort outside myself. Still, the same current that once struck me was quietly calling me home.

As an adult, I explored many paths—psychotherapy, mindfulness, meditation, Tai Chi, energy medicine, indigenous wisdom traditions, visual communication, and coaching. Through lived experience, I discovered a simple truth:

It is not only what happens to us that shapes our lives, but the quality of awareness we bring to what happens.

Quiet Fire: My Why

From this understanding, the strength of Quiet Fire emerged.

Aligning to our Quiet Fire is the practice of working with the innate creative power within each person. It is self-governing rather than reactive, and firey because it is animating, generative, and transformative.

Dancing with this fire holds responsibility and power in equal measure, each shaping the other with care, integrity, and wisdom. It asks us to become aware of our impact and to steward creative power so it becomes a force for creation rather than domination.

The path of Quiet Fire then, is both the creative power we hold and the responsibility to use it wisely.

The lightning that once changed my life has become a living symbol of my work—powerful, illuminating, and life-affirming.

My Purpose

My purpose is simple:

To embody, practice and teach others to bring their quiet fire to life, with wisdom and integrity.
