I became interested in homeopathy over 25 years ago when my nine-month old son had repeated ear infections with no relief after many antibiotics. One trip to a homeopath and the infections were resolved. This amazingly curious event got me interested in learning more and I began reading about homeopathy. Along with the expert guidance of a qualified homeopath, I treated my family and eventually studied to become a nationally Certified Classical Homeopath (CCH) and a Registered Member of the North American Society of Homeopaths (RSHom(NA)).
My formal training began in 2003 with classical constitutional prescribing with Paul Herscu and Amy Rothenberg through the New England School of Homeopathy. Since then, I have been adding other homeopathic concepts to my practice that include Human Chemistry/Detox Therapy (Ton Jansen), Polarity Analysis (Heiner Frei), Homeoprophylaxis (Free and Healthy Children with Kate Birch), Autopathy (Jiri Cehovsky) and Strep Tilch (Dr. Andreas Tilch). Additionally, I have been trained in reading blood work and Oligoscan.
I currently practice in-person in Northampton, MA as well as online.
I served for a total of 25 years on three non-profit boards: I served on the board of The National Center for Homeopathy (NCH) from 2012-2020, as conference chair for 2015 and 2016 and was Board President from 2017-2019. I served because I am passionate about educating people about homeopathy. I have also served on the board and was president of both The Thinking Center (Hartford CT) and The Wallingford Public Library (Wallingford, CT).
I am the lead author and self-publisher of a wonderful beginner acute home-care book called Homeopathy Primer: Getting Started with Homeopathy. This book was created with love by over 35 volunteer contributors consisting of professional homeopaths, student homeopaths and experienced home prescribers.

I have always been an entrepreneur and sole-proprietor. I started my own training business in 1988 as a speed reading and time management expert where I have done corporate training, association events, and webinars. I was also the creator and host of an online speed reading course called Rev it Up Reading. I am the author of 10 Days to Faster Reading, The Complete Idiots Guide to Speed Reading, Success Skills: Strategies for Study and Lifelong Learning, and Speed Reading: A Little-Known Time-Saving Superpower.
I have a BA degree from Boston University majoring in Spanish and MS degree from Southern CT State University in Adult Learning. I am happily married with two adult sons. I enjoy swimming, walking, yoga, travelling to new places and reading as time allows.
