About Me

I have worked in the sleep field for over 20 years, working with nearly every aspect of sleep. I spent my early professional years performing and analyzing sleep studies at hospitals and clinics across the Midwest.

As my career progressed, I gained new experiences as I managed multiple sleep labs, operated a CPAP medical supply store, directed a regional sleep conference for sleep technologists, analyzed sleep studies for hospitals and clinics across the U.S., participated in numerous research studies for branches of the U.S. Military and large tech companies, coached insomnia sufferers through online programs and apps, and much more.

Although I have loved every aspect of my career, helping people with insomnia is what gives me the most joy. I have struggled with insomnia firsthand in multiple ways—by working the night shift, having an autoimmune disorder, and having her thyroid removed due to cancer, all of which wreaked havoc on my sleep. As a result, I fully understands the depths of what insomnia feels like. I struggled to find non-pharmaceutical interventions for her insomnia until I learned about CBTI. I successfully managed my own insomnia through the methods and techniques of CBTI, and am impassioned to help others do the same.
