“When I first started Fantastic Faculty in 2019, I focused on offering curriculum design support to small businesses, universities and other school programs. I was an accomplished consultant, academic director and teacher offering solutions to challenges with performance, communication and professional satisfaction among educators. 

Since then, my personal life has taken a dramatic shift, and so too has my entrepreneurial spirit! I used to offer Educational Consulting with a background in wellness, breathwork and mindfulness. Now I offer Wellness, Breathwork and Mindfulness with an educational backdrop. For the first time, my professional life aligns with my personal life. What a breath of fresh air.😉 My own breathwork journey allows me to personalize each coaching session to my clients’ special interests and individual curiosities with the breath.”
