I am a Certified Life Coach with training in zoology and an M.H.S. in International Health from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. I have a questing and artistic spirit that has taken me far and wide, observing the nature of people – from the nomads of the Sahara Desert to people dealing with addictions in Baltimore City – as well as my own nature. I creatively apply the life lessons I have learned with clients and all who I encounter with compassionate irreverence. This is my first self-published novel based on two vision quest experiences in the Sahara Desert of southern Algeria with the Tuareg nomads and their camels.
