Where are you based? I am currently based in Miami, FL, and often travel to Seoul, South Korea.

What do you love about The Thrive Programme? I love how the Thrive Programme is nothing like any other kind of therapy I have done. It’s such a fresh and new concept when I read it, and when I started to really put the tools into practice, life just started making so much sense. The programme made me feel so inspired, powerful, and confident! It isn’t trauma searching, exposure therapy for emetophobes, and draining just like a therapy session; it just gave me so much hope every day I woke up.

What did you do before you became a Coach? I have always worked in the entertainment field and have had to travel to other countries often. But with emetophobia, traveling became more and more difficult every year. I was always in a fight or flight mode, and it became exhausting. So when I finished Thrive and completely got rid of my emetophobia, I noticed how freeing and amazing life could feel. I can fly for 15 hours on a plane and have zero anxiety. It was amazing! I just had this passion in my heart that I wanted others to experience the same! I couldn’t just keep this to myself! I decided to be a coach and help others Thrive without emetophobia!

What do you do when you're not working? I love reading, really, I get into a book so much that I am just sucked into the story! I especially love a great romance novel! When I’m not in resting mode, I’m definitely doing martial arts forms with my friends on the mat and training for the next taekwondo competition! I love scheduling my life around taekwondo tournaments and finding new challenges when it comes to martial arts.

An interesting fact? A fun and interesting fact about me is that I am such a spontaneous person that I just decided to go to Korea all by myself, with no friends or family, and ended up staying there for about 3 years. It was so random, but it transformed my life completely!

What hours do you work? Monday 2pm-8pm, Tuesday 12pm-5pm, Wednesday 9am-8pm, Thursday 12pm-5pm, Friday 9 am-5pm.

What languages do you speak? English (fluent), Spanish (fluent), Korean (intermediate).

Anything else? I mostly work with emetophobes who speak both English and Spanish. I’m open to working with Korean speakers as well.
