From Cancer Patient to Cancer Guide: Why I Created This Program
I still remember the call:
“You do have cancer.”
I was 40 years old, in the middle of applying to physician assistant school, chasing a career in conventional medicine. And just like that, I became the patient. I was overwhelmed, scared, and drowning in questions no one seemed to have time to answer.
I asked what I thought were simple, important questions—how should I eat now? What caused this? What are the long-term risks of the treatment I’m about to get? I was told none of it mattered. One radiologist even told me, “People just need to stop listening to their hairdressers and do what the doctor says.”
I left in tears.
But those tears turned into fuel.
Because at that moment, I knew: there had to be a better way. Not instead of conventional medicine—but in addition to it. I didn’t want to fight medicine. I wanted to fill the gap it left behind.
The Journey That Followed
I had a degree in biochemistry. I knew how to research. So I tried everything—juicing, detoxes, herbs. But the online world was a maze of conflicting advice. When a close friend and pastor was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, my conviction deepened: I had to do more. I had to get trained.
I sold everything but my car and my clothes and moved to Toronto to attend the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done—recovering from my own cancer treatment, battling autoimmune disease, and taking 19-credit semesters packed with everything from conventional diagnostics to acupuncture, nutrition, herbal medicine, psychology, and traditional Chinese medicine.
It was exhausting.
It was exactly where I was supposed to be.
Because now, I sit across from patients with that same fear I once carried in my own chest. And I can look them in the eyes and say:
I’ve been there. I get it. And there is hope.

Why I Created This Masterclass
Today, I’m a licensed naturopathic doctor and primary care physician in Vermont. I’ve worked with hundreds of patients to help restore energy, reduce inflammation, rebalance hormones, support immune health, and even optimize outcomes during and after cancer treatment.
But I know I can only sit with so many patients one-on-one. That’s why I created this masterclass—so I could reach people who need guidance, clarity, and community right now.
Whether you’ve just been diagnosed, or you’re trying to figure out how to support your body while still listening to your oncologist—this program is for you. You shouldn’t have to choose between natural and conventional medicine. You deserve both—integrated and aligned for your healing.
In this course, I’ll help you:
• Understand your body’s terrain and how to support it
• Cut through the chaos of online misinformation
• Use nutrition, lifestyle, and natural tools wisely and safely
• Feel seen, supported, and empowered—every step of the way

My Vision
I believe it’s time to normalize holistic medicine—not as an alternative, but as an essential complement to modern care. I want to help shift the culture of cancer care to something more human, more hopeful, and more whole.
Together, we can build a future where patients feel informed—not afraid.
Where they are surrounded by a team, not torn between systems.
Where healing is personal, powerful, and possible.
