I was born along the Great Lakes in Erie, Pennsylvania, and now reside in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina -- the heart of Appalachia. I am an ordained minister of the Order of Melchizedek, a medium, a certified Reiki Master and Teacher of the Usui Sensei lineage, a spiritual life coach, and energy healing practitioner working in several modalities, for individuals, groups, and locations.

An inquisitive and precocious youngster, I was raised in the Catholic Church, always questioning everything in my efforts to understand the abilities that many of the elders in my family displayed and that I myself had received. With an ancestry strongly heralding from the Eastern European areas of Slovakia, Hungary and Romania, and well Celtic European lineage from England and Ireland, I was able to recognize that there was something special going on in great-gramma's kitchen with all the herbs and roots, but yet too young to fully appreciate what I was witnessing. Sadly the members of the immigrant generations of my family passed before I was able to directly preserve their history.

Having always felt that something was missing in my religious upbringing that there was something more, at the age of 18 I began searching for a spiritual practice that matched what I felt in my heart. I was introduced to Wicca and Paganism and felt a spark of recognition and a sense of “coming home” in my spirit, but it wasn't a complete match. There was still something missing. I learned of Spiritualism and a more robust sense of wholeness came over me and I've been a Spiritualist ever since.

I have worked with Spirit since early childhood, the kid that always seemed to “know” things before they'd happen. After discovering Spiritualism, I began growing, learning, honing, and adapting the sensory perception abilities of clairvoyance, clairsentience, and clairaudience. As far back as I can remember, I have been able to see and hear Spirit, and ultimately in 1999 began formal studies into the practice of mediumship, the healing arts and Spirituality. Over the years I've learned to implicitly trust the gifts of my intuition and my guides and utilize them to coach my clients through the twists and turns of life to find love, and to prosper, grow, learn, and heal.

Rootwork and the practice of hoodoo was the final piece of the puzzle, completing my spiritual quest; a piece that I formalized and integrated seamlessly – and powerfully – into my established spiritual practices upon graduating Miss Cat's Hoodoo Rootwork Correspondence Course in 2018. Hoodoo and rootwork have not only complemented my spiritual gifts but in many ways augmented them as well. It was a natural, harmonious blending.

Readings and spell casting booked with me are treated with the highest level of integrity and discretion, without judgement, although I reserve the right to refuse requests for unjustified curses. Workings do require a reading before beginning to ensure clear intentions and outline expectations for the best outcome possible. It's my goal to assist anyone I can to be the best versions of themselves, empowered, living life to its fullest extent.
