I am a Bachelor of Science graduate of the University of Virginia School of Nursing, and a Clinical Specialist in Psychiatric Nursing with a Master's degree from Catholic University of America (Washington, DC). My massage training was through Luther Rice College, Arlington, VA (school presently closed). I completed the international certification course in Aromatherapy through the London School of Aromatherapy (Patricia Davis), and attended graduate studies with Shirley Price College, England. I am a Licensed Esthetician. I co-wrote the training manual for the Institute of Integrative Aromatherapy and teach a 325 contact hour course in Integrative Aromatherapy through distance learning format.

It is my vision that the Institute of Integrative Aromatherapy will be a catalyst for the integration of Clinical Aromatherapy in health care for the 21st century.

I believe that the natural impulse for the body/mind/spirit is to reside in a state of homeostasis in an ever-changing environment.

I subscribe to a multi-disciplinary approach to achieving bio-psycho-social-spiritual balance and well being.

We believe in choice in health care. We know that the appropriate uses of essential oils foster balance, high level wellness, peace, and joy in our lives. We are committed to foster this experience in others as well, one student and one client at a time.
