I created KIYA Wellness for the ones who hold so much... the leaders, the visionaries, the space-holders, who are finally ready to be held.

There’s a moment when success stops feeling satisfying.
 When the external accomplishments, the roles, the responsibilities… they just don’t reach the parts of you that ache to be seen, held, and heard.

I know that moment deeply.
 And it was the doorway to everything I now teach.

For years, I looked like I had it all together. I held corporate leadership titles. I was the top performer in my career. I was the go-to person when it came to success. But beneath the surface, I was living in a constantly activated nervous system. I was high-functioning, anxious, and disconnected. Achieving, but not fully alive. I craved something deeper, not just a moment of peace, but a profound return to myself.

Even while I was in my corporate role, I was quietly pursuing my true passion. I taught yoga. I led sound baths. I coached clients one-on-one in the evenings and on weekends. The healing work had always lived in me, I just hadn’t given myself full permission to live in it.

When I was laid off from my corporate job, I took it as a sign from the universe, a full-body YES to go all in. I dove into this work with everything I had, enrolling in training after training, not just to learn techniques, but to transform myself in the process.

I’ve studied Breathwork, Sound Healing, Hypnotherapy, EFT, Somatic Coaching, Life and Success Coaching, NLP, Time Techniques, from some of the best teachers in the industry, all through a trauma-informed lens. Every certification deepened my own healing, and gave me new tools to support others on theirs.

That’s when everything changed.
 That’s when KIYA was born.

KIYA is more than a brand.
 It’s a frequency.
 A sacred space where success and softness can coexist, where doing meets being, and where your next evolution doesn’t require you to hustle… just to surrender.

Why I Do This

Because I know what it feels like to hold space for others while silently craving someone to hold it for you.
 Because I believe healing can be both sacred and expressive.
 Because the world needs more leaders who are deeply regulated, embodied, and awake.
 And because you deserve to feel empowered, seen, and safe in your body.

This work isn’t about fixing you.
 It’s about guiding you back to the version of you that was never broken.

More About Me

I’m based in San Diego, where the ocean is my grounding force and the sun reminds me to lead with warmth. I’ve been in the wellness space for over a decade, and I’m endlessly devoted to the intersection of spirituality, science, and soul-led self-expression.

I’ve completed over 700 hours of yoga teacher training, and I’m certified in Hypnobreathwork®, Sound Healing, Clinical Hypnosis, Reiki, Subconscious Reprogramming, NLP, EFT, Somatic Coaching, Life & Success Coaching, and Time Techniques. I bring a trauma-informed, heart-centered approach to everything I do, weaving ancient wisdom with modern methodology to help you access your inner power.

Beyond the credentials, I’m a woman in her softness and strength.
 I’m a creative, a guide, and a lifelong student of the body, the breath, and the soul.

The hummingbird in my logo is a tribute to my grandmother, whose presence still guides me. She reminds me that healing doesn’t always have to be heavy.
 It can be graceful.
 It can be gentle.
 And it can be beautiful.

This is the energy I bring to KIYA.
 Welcome home.
