MY STORY
In today’s modern world, a lot of women have put off getting married and having children. I will focus on my career first, I’m still young, there’s plenty of time for that in the future.
I was that woman before I met my husband. By the time I got married I was 35 years old. I experienced several miscarriages due to my inability to carry my pregnancy to term. I had a wonderful doctor who helped me and my husband to finally ger pregnant successfully. On my second trimester, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I had an amazing nutritionist who guided me through this journey to have a healthy and beautiful baby girl.
This has inspired me to learn functional nutrition and to become a fertility coach.
The truth is most couples can achieve pregnancy even at a later age by learning their natural signs of fertility, modifying their lifestyle, managing stress, avoiding a toxic environment, and taking supplements to boost their fertility and have a healthy pregnancy for the mother and her baby.
My clients are always excited to know that they can take control of their health, make empowered decisions, and see incredible results that don’t require expensive fertility treatment.
As an NFP teacher and fertility coach, I see couples wanting to achieve postpone pregnancy using Billings Ovulation Method.
I enjoy teaching couples how to identify their natural signs of fertility and being God’s instrument in their learning of a natural way of planning their family.
I especially like assisting couples in achieving pregnancy and reassuring couples to persevere in this method as it is within God’s plan for their family.

On a personal note….
I love the ocean. I don’t know why, but something about the big body of water is calming for me. I love nature in general, but mostly love the feeling of sand and the ocean breeze and warm water on my feet. I am hoping to go back to Hawaii where my husband and I had our honeymoon, 11 months after our wedding.
