What is your professional background?

MSW, MA, CPC   Health Promotion

Explain how allergies have affected your life or the life of someone close to you.

As a family, we have been dealing with food allergies since 2001, as both my children were born with multiple food allergies.

What motivated you to become an AllerCoach?

As a parent whose children were diagnosed with multiple food allergies, I learned that changing the way our family thought about how we lived our lives was the first step to ensure that our children did not feel they were defined by their diagnosis. I became passionate about helping my family and others find ways to navigate through life's transitions.

What were your key takeaways from the AllerCoach program?

The program was comprehensive, professional and empowering.

How have you implemented what you learned from the AllerCoach program?

Instead of focusing on obstacles, we need to strategize safe and healthy ways to live our lives the way we choose.

How has the AllerCoach certification helped you personally?

With information, one can lead and educate from a place of positivity and empowerment instead of from a place of fear and misconception.

How has the AllerCoach certication helped you professionally?

By empowering me to reach out to others living with food allergies and food intolerances. Through coaching, I found a way to take my experiences and help others in transition to live their lives with less uncertainty and more purpose, direction and balance.
