Heather’s journey into wellness began well before her own health challenges. A lifelong learner and explorer, she studied abroad in Germany during university, where she became fluent in the language and developed a deep curiosity about how people live and communicate. After earning her Master’s in Linguistics and teaching English around the world, she eventually landed in Brazil - where she fell in love with the culture, became fluent in Portuguese, and met her husband. Her passion for language and human connection carried her across continents, but it was motherhood and chronic illness that brought her on a more inward journey - one that led her to the world of integrative healing.

After becoming a mom, Heather began experiencing a mix of symptoms that didn’t seem to add up - fatigue, inflammation, unexplained pain, and extreme emotional imbalances. Despite seeking help from multiple specialists, the only answers offered were antidepressants and steroids. That didn’t sit right with her. Deep down, she knew there had to be a better explanation, so she kept searching - but kept running into the same wall of uncertainty and incomplete solutions.

That changed when she began working with a functional dietitian who ran advanced tests like the GI MAP and DUTCH panel - labs that gave her real insight into her gut, hormones, and detox pathways. For the first time, she felt seen by the data. And yet, there was still something missing.

Driven by her signature curiosity, Heather enrolled in the Integrative Healing Academy, where she discovered the missing link: genetics. The program revealed how our genes influence everything from nutrient absorption to stress response - and how, with the right support, we can thrive with the genes we have.

Today, Heather blends her background in global perspective and functional health into a truly integrative approach. Through personalized protocols that combine genetic insights, functional testing, and mind-body connection, she helps others get to the root cause of their symptoms - and reclaim a life of balance, energy, and alignment.

She understands what it’s like to live in the in-between. Her mission is to help you feel empowered, informed, and supported as you learn to listen to your body and partner with your own biology.
