I help people reconnect to their inner voice, clarify their boundaries, and make decisions aligned with who they actually are. Not who they were taught to be.

My work draws from over 13 years of facilitation, teaching, and decades of lived experience. I bring together somatics, power literacy, and relational skill in service of transformation that’s practical, repeatable, and real — for groups, organizations, or 1:1 work.

I grew up in the margins: between cultures, between identities. With a disabled Puerto Rican mother and a father from a lineage of American privilege, I learned early what it meant to not belong. And what it costs to contort yourself to fit. That upbringing made me a systems nerd by necessity. I’ve been tracking how power, survival, and belonging intersect since before I had the words for it.

I hold a bachelor's from the University of Connecticut and certification as a Holistic Coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (not my favorite program - but people always like to see credentials, so here it is). More meaningfully, I’ve trained with Kasia Urbaniak on power and voice, studied relational ethics with the Right Use of Power Institute, and I’m completing certification as a Wheel of Consent Facilitator through the School of Consent.

At 20, I found myself in Al-Anon, in the wreckage of a relationship shaped by addiction. That was the beginning of unraveling the toxic dynamics I’d absorbed around care, control, and obligation — not just in that relationship, but in my family, my culture, and the roles I was trained to play.

That work didn’t end in those rooms. It deepened through the end of my marriage, through parenting, and through every reckoning that helped me sort what was mine to carry from what I needed to surrender. This is the root of my work now: helping people untangle the difference between responsibility and self-abandonment, and make choices from clarity instead of conditioning.

My work helps people reclaim their voice, their boundaries, and their freedom in ways that are grounded, liberatory, and in service to something larger than the self. Here, feeling better isn’t the point. Contributing to our communities and creating ways of living that are sustainable and transformative is.

I work with individuals, groups, and organizations ready to stop performing and start living from truth. These spaces are experiments in liberation: playful, collaborative, and designed to bring people back to what’s real.

Clients leave this work with more capacity to say no (and yes) from an honest place, more connection to their nervous system’s wisdom, and more ability to live in alignment with who they actually are.
