I didn't sit around wearing a black hoodie, lighting candles and chanting to the gods…

I was raised Catholic. I attended private school and followed the Christian way: Respect others, show honesty, and say my daily prayers. The only difference: I talked to DEAD people and didn't even know it! Interestingly, this kind of communication is forbidden in my religion. Apparently, I missed that sermon and perhaps for good reasons!

I was like any other kid: active in sports, attended football games, and shared laughter and giggles with my friends! Sadly, I was a "motherless" child. I lost my mom at the early age of 3. Since I wasn't given much time to create memories of her in the physical world, I unknowingly bonded with her in spirit. Growing up, I would talk to her about 'little girl' things or simply to just say 'hello'. This was my connection, my comfort and my bond to her. Unaware of what I was truly doing, I found myself communicating and giving my condolences to others who had also crossed over to the other side.

It wasn't until 2007, after facing a near-death health condition, that I consciously became aware of my communication with the after-life. Feeling afraid and all alone about my illness, I found myself seeking out alternative measures in hopes of curing my condition. I worked with some of the most amazing spiritual teachers and healers. My whole world was transformed as I soaked up knowledge about 'energy' as it relates to the mind, body and spirit. I took classes on healing 'thyself' emotionally, physically, spiritually and mentally. It was during this time in my life that I began relaying 'messages from beyond' during group meditations. Everytime I'd speak, it was in reference to a loved one in spirit. I brushed it off as coincidence. But eventually, it became unavoidable.

The only difference: I talked to DEAD people and didn't even know it!

Soon after, I was enjoying brunch at a local café when the owner told me about her haunted establishment. I quickly relayed the personal information I'd received about the spirits residing there. She was awe-struck, since days earlier she'd had a paranormal investigation done and confirmed the very things I'd just shared.

After providing evidential messages and comfort to people I didn't even know. People who'd lost their loved ones to suicides, murders, car crashes, cancer and natural causes. I found myself confused, afraid and having vivid flashbacks of what I thought were childhood nightmares, and I realized I'd been communicating with spirits all along. I became convinced that I had an ability to help people heal.

My goal is to utilize my mediumship ability and/or spiritual teachings to help others heal and grow.
