My life blends two unique worlds into one: I have more than 30 years experience as a practicing psychic and 25 years professional experience in training and education.
I grew up in a fairly normal family in the 50′s. My dad was an airline mechanic, and Mom stayed at home to raise five kids. Most of my life was rather routine, with one exception – my parents believed in the paranormal and spiritual world. They recognized and encouraged my natural psychic and intuitive skills. By the time I was 18, I was giving readings for family and friends.
My business expertise is the result of more than 13 years at Apple Computer, Inc. At Apple I was able to create a work environment that integrated my spiritual beliefs, intuitive abilities and business skills. As the national Training Manager for Customer Service and Support, I designed training centers and managed the start up of multi-level training programs at four technical support sites throughout the US. My specialties include TQM, Anger Defusion, customer satisfaction, career development, transition training, team building, business and manufacturing processes, communication skills and handling challenging personalities. During my years at Apple, my responsibilities also included leading implementation teams and managing vendors who handled much of Apple’s multimillion dollar a year support business.
When I decided to leave the corporate world, I put all of my possessions in storage, bought a 20′ travel trailer and set out with my dog, Jackson, as my traveling companion. I spent 18 months traveling throughout the Western United States. In getting back to the simple things in life, I really got in touch with my spirit, my family, and friends and the things that were important to me. I realized that my true path was one that would allow me to share my message of spirit and life through writing, speaking and teaching.
After relocating to Tucson, Arizona in 1997, I founded Peak Aspirations, LLC, a company dedicated to working with people who want to connect with their dreams, aspirations and spirit. My work includes business and personal coaching, intuitive channeling, workshops, retreats and teleclasses, and hypnotherapy and past life regression. My greatest joy is assisting men and women in finding balance their lives.
My education has been a life-long process. I have a BA in Psychology and am currently a PhD candidate at the American Institute of Holistic Theology with a major in Healtheology (looking at how our belief systems affect our health and well-being). I am a certified Hypnotherapist through the National Guild of Hypnotists, the largest hypnotist organization in the United States and a member of IARRT (International Association for Regression Research and Therapies, Inc).
I enjoy traveling, hiking, camping, dancing, softball and my two dogs, Jackson and Wolfie. I am a member of NAFE (National Association of Female Executives), The National Guild of Hypnotists, the Tucson Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce, and Coachville, Inc. As manager of the Human Energy Systems Lab at the University of Arizona, I assist Dr. Gary Schwartz (author of The Afterlife Experiments) with research projects in the areas of biofield medicine, energy healing and mediumship. In my spare time I’ve worked for the American Red Cross as Volunteer Coordinator, assisted with numerous bone marrow drives for leukemia patients, and started my own investment club through the NAIC (National Association of Investors Corporation). I am currently writing my first book, Intuition: The Success Skill for the 21st Century, drawing upon my life as a psychic in the corporate world.
When I channel The Band, I step aside in a partial trance, but not completely away. I experience myself sitting at the head of a huge conference table. All of the members of The Band are seated around the table – thinking, debating, and discussing, with great energy and conviction, the answers that I then speak.
“You are not a human being in search of spiritual experience. You are a spiritual being immersed in a human experience.”
– Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (written during his physical existence)
