I’ve always been interested in what makes people tick, and in affirming their feelings and experiences. As a child, I was told I was “too sensitive.” As I grew, I learned to embrace my big, open heart.

What makes me tick? Connecting with other people. Sharing great joys and sorrows. Listening. Asking questions. Celebrating diversity, and giving voice to the connection among human hearts.

I bring my background in social and political activism, creative arts, and homeopathy to my work as Celebrant and Officiant in the New York Hudson Valley. I’ve been a graphic designer and involved in creative arts my whole life. Looking for a more meaningful way to work with people, I went back to school and became a homeopath. I listened to people’s stories and feelings, and walked with them as they transformed and healed. As a Celebrant, I help couples express their stories of love through ceremony. My background in the arts translates into creative and original ceremonies for every couple I work with.

My loved ones and my clients are my inspiration. I have a growing family, a cherished husband, old and new friends, and a garden. Music, laughter and gratitude are key.

I am a native New Yorker and Certified Life Cycle Celebrant®, professionally trained and educated in the art of ceremony by the Celebrant Foundation & Institute. I’m all yours as we work together to create your unique ceremony.
