I have more passions than I do nicknames, and trust me, that’s saying something. My world revolves around health, wellness, and spirituality—whether it’s diving deep into mindset work, indulging in transformative retreats, or exploring the latest in holistic healing. I’m endlessly curious about discovering new ways to elevate my well-being and embracing a high-vibrancy life in every sense. And let’s be honest, I love doing it all in style. Give me luxurious wellness escapes, the latest health and beauty treatments, matcha lattes, delicious food, a good book, and deep conversations with inspiring humans, and I’m in my happy place. Some call it self-care; I call it a way of life.

Born and raised in New York, I took my love for learning to NYU and earned an MA in Industrial/Organizational Psychology after completing my BA in Psychology and Russian. I then dove headfirst into the fast-paced worlds of media and tech, building a 15-year career in global HR with some of the biggest companies out there, including Paramount, NBCUniversal, and Disney. I quickly became known as an organizational fixer, thriving on untangling complex processes, designing people-first solutions, and driving impactful change. I loved the challenge, but what fueled me most was creating better workplaces and helping people thrive.

More than anything, I love learning from inspiring women and have always gravitated toward successful women who seem to manage it all beautifully. I wanted to learn how they did it—how they balanced career aspirations with a strong spiritual and wellness practice. Where were the woo woo working women? The ones living a high-vibrancy life and killing it professionally? Sure, we all admire the Oprahs, Brenés, and Sheryls of the world, but I wanted to hear from women who aren’t gracing magazine covers or TED stages. I wanted to connect with real women, from all kinds of careers and backgrounds, who found ways to align with their purpose and passions—without sacrificing their joy, style, or sense of humor.

That’s why I created Woo Woo Working Women. This space is more than just a blog. It’s a destination where career, wellness, spirituality, and style intersect. Through interviews with inspiring women and thoughtfully curated content, my goal is to empower women to step into their fullest, most beautiful lives. Here, you’ll find practical tools, actionable insights, and proof that it’s possible—and fun—to be spiritual, successful, and stylish all at once.

Welcome to Woo Woo Working Women, where ambition meets alignment, success feels soulful, and creating a beautiful, high-vibrancy life is completely within reach.
