In 2007, my world was irrevocably shattered by a single phone call. While I was 2,000 miles away on business, my 17-year-old son, a beacon of promise and joy, was tragically taken from me in a car accident. The devastation that followed plunged me into a deep depression and turmoil, but through my pain, I experienced a transformation that allowed me to find hope again. In this dark period, I discovered that my understanding of God was far from complete. Through my journey of grief, I encountered a profound and transformative relationship with Christ.

My first book, Wake Up: A Mother's Grief Journey, emerged from this crucible of pain and loss. It reflects how my suffering was ultimately repurposed into a message of hope and resilience. Now, my mission is to inspire and educate others on transforming life’s inevitable sorrows into a pathway to prosperity and genuine peace.

Through sharing my story and insights as a grief counselor, I aim to guide others in finding healing and purpose amidst their own struggles.
