I grew up in New York and now call Joshua Tree home. After a year traveling in our camper, we fell in love with the desert’s rhythm and stayed. Hosting began on the road - I now welcome guests to our home and help others with their spaces. I love connecting visitors with the local community. My wellness background helps me create grounded, restorative spaces, and I enjoy introducing guests to sound healing, movement, herbal therapies and more.
