In January 1975, as a new nursing student at LA County-USC Hospital, I had a life-changing realization on my first day with patients: none of them truly needed to be there. The root causes were lack of education, poor nutrition, violence, and drug abuse. I made a personal vow that day—to figure out how to keep people out of the hospital.

My nursing career took me through hospice, ICU, CCU, NICU, ER, and even the first heart transplants. I was on the Reagan-Brady team at George Washington University Hospital during the assassination attempt. That critical care experience propelled me deeper into the wellness world.

I studied Nutrition and Iridology under Dr. Bernard Jensen, earned a bachelor's in Health and Preventative Medicine, and supported my former husband through medical school. Everything shifted when I became pregnant with quadruplets. With little research available on managing high-risk pregnancies, doctors pushed for abortion. I refused. I created the first medical protocol for higher-order multiple births and later spoke at the Center for Higher Order Multiple Births in Amsterdam, addressing grief in multifetal demise for the first time.

I completed a Master’s in Health Education and Psychology and a Doctorate in Psychology with an emphasis in Nutritional Motivation. I pursued advanced training in hypnosis, energy work, light therapy, and trauma recovery. For 30 years, I’ve run a private practice focused on nutrition and health, creating corporate wellness programs that dramatically reduced costs and improved lives.

I've had the honor of learning from top integrative medicine practitioners and continue to attend medical conferences. Today, I partner with Dr. Robert Thompson, whose groundbreaking Thompson-Dobereiner Principle of Mineral Substitution illuminates how mineral imbalances affect health at a cellular level.

Dr. Thompson’s discoveries confirmed what I began seeking nearly five decades ago: intracellular balance is the foundation of lasting health. Together, we’ve witnessed remarkable results—nonverbal autistic children speaking within weeks, women carrying healthy pregnancies after repeated miscarriages.

Now, I educate physicians, provide consultations, testing, and hypnotherapy, and share access to cutting-edge healing and anti-aging technologies. I’ve authored books, hosted podcasts, and am currently editing Dr. Thompson’s research.

Our bodies possess incredible wisdom and healing power. With the right tools and knowledge, we can unlock that potential. I’m grateful to help others on that journey.
