I live in Brooklyn, NY with my dog Pluto, the cutest little 12 yr old, 6 lb Chihuahua you’ve ever seen.
I grew up in Wisconsin (and before you ask, yes, I do love cheese), and I went to college in Minnesota. Afterwards, I graduated from the Mini-apple (Minneapolis) to the Big Apple (NYC).
I’m a life-long learner and explorer - I have an insatiable curiosity for knowledge and discovery. I’m constantly looking to discover more about both myself and the world, and I’m always looking to learn more about how to do better, be better, and achieve my goals.
I'm also former 9-5er who spent way too many hours at my corporate job until I got so burned out that one day I found myself riding the subway and I had absolutely no idea if I was on my way home or to work!
I couldn't remember what time of day it was or where I was going…
That led me on a journey of self-discovery about how my own stress, energy, and self-doubt had been negatively affecting my life and led to my burnout.
My journey brought me to positive psychology, which gave me the knowledge and tools I needed to get out of that cycle of stress, burnout, and self-doubt and find the courage and energy I needed to build the life I wanted.
