I became interested in Vedic astrology after I received my first astrological reading in 2016. The reading catapulted me into the rich field of Jyotish, the science of light. Since that time, astrology has become central to my life path.

Before astrology, I spent most of my adult life exploring various esoteric and mystical pathways out of desire to know more about my place within this great universe. In my early 20’s I met my teacher, a Curandera or Latin American folk healer. My experience of learning through her guidance has led to a lifelong study of shamanism.

In 2017, I earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Science in Psychology, specializing in scientific research and counseling. It was while earning my degree that I was introduced to Yoga and Vedanta through the writings of Swami Vivekananda.

In 2019, I earned a certificate as an Ayurvedic life-style coach through David Frawley’s American Institute of Vedic Studies program. Shortly thereafter, I enrolled in Asheville Vedic Astrology Apprenticeship Program and began my studies in Vedic Astrology under the tutelage of Ryan Kurzack.

At the end of 2021, I completed my academic studies as part of the Asheville Vedic Astrology Apprenticeship Program and began my practicum, my practice of astrology. Since that time, my studies in Vedic astrology continue to give me deeper insights into man’s relationship with the cosmos and the role each one of us has to play in life.
