I was born in Tucson and raised in Nogales, Arizona. My parents, both working professionals, were in touch with their spiritual sides. My mother, an executive in a national company and a devout Catholic, possessed the ability to pray in tongues and had an amazing singing voice. She would lend her voice to weddings, funerals, ceremonies, and celebrations, and actively participated in prayer and healing circles. As the youngest of three boys, I found myself alongside my mother in most places. From an early age, I was immersed in spirituality and encouraged to forge a strong connection with the Divine, understanding spirituality as a way of life.

My father, an Army Veteran and the Chief of the Fire Department, exuded an authoritative demeanor. Beneath this exterior, however, he also possessed a sensitive nature and, quite possibly, clairvoyant abilities. He spoke of spirits and ghosts he could see around our house, regaling us with tales of lore and demonstrating a magical sense of things. Some of his interactions with people were deeply personal, uttering statements that would shock complete strangers, all based on his feelings and perceptions. Though he would never admit it, he possessed the gift of reading people's energies and auras. The strong spiritual foundation laid by both my parents has guided me throughout my life.

As a child, I myself was highly sensitive to energy and had numerous encounters with the spirit world and the unexplained. Though formally raised in the Catholic tradition, I yearned for a deeper understanding. This innate desire compelled me to seek more information and explore other religions and schools of thought. Little did I know at the time, this yearning would fuel my journey and eventually reveal my life's purpose.

Upon graduating from high school, I set forth into the world, leaving home behind. College beckoned, and I ventured forth, obtaining my degree and commencing a career in social services. Over the course of two decades, I gained valuable experience in management, coaching, counseling, and guidance. I led numerous therapeutic groups and worked with thousands of individuals, providing support and solace in a safe and therapeutic environment where hearts could freely express themselves.

In my 30s, destiny led me to Mexico, where I found myself residing in the Yucatan Peninsula. It was during this time that my spiritual knowledge and understanding would reach its culmination and integration. I developed a profound appreciation for our connection to Mother Earth and Father Sun, learning the traditions and beliefs of the Mayan Shamans. I actively participated in sacred rituals and ceremonies, and I was blessed during the Spring Equinox at the majestic Chichen Itza pyramid. My time living in the Yucatan was invaluable, bringing my journey full circle. After two transformative years, I returned to Arizona to live with my parents. Within a month of my arrival, a life-altering event awaited me. On an ordinary day, as I walked into my parents' house, lightning struck me. Without warning or injury, my life was forever changed. My connection to the spiritual world deepened, and my path as a healer, mystic, coach, priest, medicine man, and Reiki Master took shape.

A few months following this experience, my mother's health began to decline rapidly. Within a short period, I found myself planning her funeral and crafting her eulogy. The devastating loss left me feeling helpless and ill-equipped to cope. In these moments of despair, Reiki appeared as a beacon of light in my life. Soon after, I received my ordination. I continued my work in social services, but now with a newfound source of energy medicine.

I now realize that I have dedicated my life to helping others heal emotionally and energetically. I have seamlessly incorporated my spiritual beliefs and practices into every facet of my existence, firmly believing in the philosophy of "living as you work and working as you live." At the core of my healing philosophy lies the conviction that we are all masters with the inherent ability to heal ourselves.

My approach to working with clients revolves around creating a serene and tranquil setting, fostering open conversation and relaxation techniques. Drawing from my experience and intuitive abilities, I tap into my clients' emotional and energetic needs, facilitating the release of stagnant energy and blockages. The results have been profound, with my clients reporting feelings of lightness, happiness, and inner peace after our sessions.

Beyond providing spiritual guidance and healing, I find solace in hiking the mountains of southern Arizona, nurturing my garden, and immersing myself in nature. I remain committed to my ongoing spiritual education, continuously expanding my knowledge and understanding of the divine. Additionally, I offer free monthly ceremonies to foster an inclusive and accessible community for individuals from diverse backgrounds and experiences.

Each day, I cultivate essential qualities such as honesty, integrity, and compassion within myself, recognizing their vital role in my role as a spiritual coach and counselor. My long-term goal is to continue impacting the lives of my clients and community, assisting them in reconnecting with their spirituality, inner wisdom, and ultimately finding healing and peace within their earthly experience. With what I believe to be a rich spiritual background, I offer a truly unique and potent blend of healing modalities. I am honored to guide clients on their journey towards self-discovery, spiritual growth, and profound healing.
