I live in Stratford, Ontario with my husband and our dog, Jasper. Our two free-spirited and independent daughters join us when they are home from university. I have been a speech-language pathologist working with children for 26 years.Ever since I inadvertently stumbled upon essential oils many years ago, I have been on a pursuit to learn as much as I can. My family might phrase it as being obsessed but I prefer to think of myself as an enthusiastic learner. This study and experiencing the benefits of essential oils excites me and brings me life. I feel especially blessed when I can help someone with what I have learned.

The Aromatherapy Certification Program was wonderful. It was so well organized and it was great to be able to work at my own pace. It is such a supportive, friendly community. I don't know if you will find a nicer bunch of people than a group of aromatherapists. Andrea, in particular, is so down-to-earth and lovely. She brings such joy and a wealth of knowledge to her teaching. I learned more than I ever knew there was to know about essential oils.
