I’m a proud daughter of immigrants and the youngest of three siblings.

From a young age, I faced mental health challenges – battling clinical depression and anxiety throughout my teenage years. As I transitioned into adulthood, the struggle evolved into bipolar depression, accompanied by severe anxiety and panic attacks.

I sought professional help after 14 years of symptoms, self-medicating, and eventually, suicidal ideation.

Since then, I’ve triumphed over alcohol abuse, drug addiction, and religious condemnation. Despite conflicting opinions and unsuitable advice, I’ve structured my thoughts and life in a way that empowers me to manage mental illness symptoms without resorting to self-destruction.

I imbued my journey with resilience and personal growth.

I believe in the profound nature of humanity, wonderfully made and crafted to experience the fullness of our Ultimate Identity—a symbiotic fusion of humanness and divinity.

I believe contrast is necessary for the experience of wholeness.

I believe that two seemingly contradicting truths can coexist without invalidating each other.

I believe remembering our power and purpose is intrinsic to life’s destiny, orchestrating the unfolding of our soul’s agenda – even in moments of struggle and pain.

I believe focusing on what we want more of, the beauty of the world and the light in the darkness, is transformative. Ultimately, I believe in being the change we wish to see in the world.

I look forward to connecting with you and using this platform to inspire positive change.
