I’ve always been curious about the world — how things work, how people connect, and how ideas take shape. There is so much potential all around us, even when we can’t quite see it yet. This curiosity led me to tech, where I spent decades leading teams, creative problem solving, and collaborating to bring ideas to life. I’ve always loved exploring connections — between people, ideas, and possibilities — and that perspective shaped the way I led, mentored, and found meaning in my work.

Even though I love collaborating and working on products, it can be stressful. My acupuncturist once suggested I try Qigong. I never made it to his Saturday classes, but the idea stayed with me. Years later, my naturopath shared a few Qigong exercises to practice at home. That evening, I experienced a profound emotional release — unexpected and eye-opening. It shifted something within me and changed how I understood energy, emotion, and healing.

That was a turning point. I earned my Doctorate in Chinese Energetic Medicine (DCEM) while serving as a Senior Product Manager leading multiple teams. I trained as a Master Practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Mental Emotional Release® (MER), blending Eastern and Western approaches to transformation.

Today, through The Still Point Works, I help people release stress, emotional weight, and limiting beliefs so they can reconnect with their natural sense of balance and clarity — the still point, a place of calm and presence within. My work weaves together energy medicine, Qigong, NLP, and MER to help clients move through life with greater ease, confidence, and flow.
