Author, former Functional Health Practitioner, and now Qualified Insurance Adviser – empowering clients across health and finance
My Journey
Experience in functional health (10+ years running a naturopathic practice)
Author of U Don’t Seem Autistic
Life, Disability, and Health Insurance Expert at Real Savvy Financial Advice
Over a Decade of Experience in Functional Health Care
Before moving into the financial services industry, I spent over 10 years running my own successful functional health practice, serving clients in person and virtually–worldwide, combining the knowledge of conventional medicine with a complementary-based approach.
My background includes a Doctorate in Integrative Medicine, and a Bachelor’s Degree in Anthropology, and I was fortunate to be featured as a natural health expert in national magazines, live radio and at corporate events.
Today, I bring that same level of care, detail, and client advocacy into my work at RSFA—helping clients navigate life, disability, and health insurance with clarity, understanding, and a medically-informed perspective.
Author of U Don’t Seem Autistic – A Personal Story of Discovery and Advocacy
Writing U Don’t Seem Autistic was a deeply personal journey for me. After being diagnosed with autism in midlife, I wanted to share my experiences to help others—especially women—who may not fit the traditional stereotypes.
This book is a reflection of my advocacy for gender equity in autism diagnosis and my belief that understanding neurological differences can empower individuals to thrive.
I’m proud to have created a resource that’s honest, practical, and hopeful. You can learn more about the book or purchase a copy through my dedicated website at the button below.
