It was 2010 and I had it all... A high-paying corporate career, lots of friends, an amazing social life filled with “recreational fun” until one day, I began to feel as though my life had ZERO meaning, substance, or depth. I felt like a hamster on a wheel, sharing a large cage with a bunch of other hamsters and their wheels.
Soon my recreational indulgences became a BIG problem, leaving me addicted to illicit substances, depressed, and even in trouble with the law. I found myself out of control and knocking on death’s door when a cocaine overdose almost killed me. I called out to God and my life was instantly spared. In the aftermath of this miraculous event, it became evident that something had to change.
Battling the voices of insecurity, regret and fear... my desire to be happy and fulfilled took over, and I was directed to an intuitive card reader who told me that I was meant to be a “healer”. The look of confusion on my face was enough for her to give me some examples to contemplate. Being a healthy skeptic, I kept asking other intuitive people to see if they would offer something different... something that made sense... for me. Needless to say, that was not the case.
The 4th and final intuitive with whom I inquired, was a VERY well-known and internationally recognized intuitive who just happened to offer a "random" reading for me and 3 others in a crowd of more than 40 people. I asked her a vague question: "Am I supposed to be doing what I am doing now, or something else?" Her response, while comical, was a bit vague, until she finally blurted out, "You know you're a healer, right?!?!"

That statement led to my first emotional catharsis. for the first time, I FELT it to be true and began to weep uncontrollably in front of a bunch of strangers. As the tears poured from my eyes, some form of energy coursed through my body with a force that left me shaking for some time.
I spent the next few months asking for clarity as to what type of healer I was to become, and was synchronistically led to Reiki Energy Healing, Angelic Communication, as well as Massage.
Eagerly completing my studies in Russian Medical Massage, Angelic Counseling, and reaching Reiki Master/Teacher level, I was ready to begin my life's work. After being rejected by almost every spa in my area, I started my own practice and, in May of 2012 Inner Shift Healing (previously On The Table) and quickly rose to the #1 rated healing practice in Los Angeles.
Since then, I have been witness to many miraculous and supernatural events including encounters with angels and other loving spirits, waking visions, channeling, spirit-overlay, levitation, entity removals, out of body experiences (OBE's), disembodied voices, lucid dreaming, astral travel, past life recollections, visitations from holy figures and gurus, and much more that defy science, logic and reason but at the same time, deepened my faith and connection to the Divine.
These experiences since my initial awakening have helped me to peek beyond the veil of our current existence and completely shift my life into one of passion, purpose, and healing. I now TRULY believe that through God... ALL things are possible ... and I look forward to helping you create a shift in your life that will bring happiness, health, prosperity and love to heights previously unimagined.
