My personal journey, starts as a first-generation Dominican-American growing up in New York City. My complex upbringing showed up in my body as chronic depression diagnosed as a teenager, then an anxiety disorder in my early adulthood. Through these same holistic practices, with the deepest gratitude, my healing continues to steer me towards my true nature and authenticity. Shout to all my teachers and guides for assisting me in the alchemy of turning my suffering into wisdom.
Since 2011, I have been professionally committed to supporting others to heal — mind, body, and soul. I abide by clear ethics and standards of practice to ensure you receive the highest quality care. I live by my own values which are love, health, creativity, expression, and abundance. It is our divine birthright. My mission is to help activate this potential within each of us, support sacred service to each other and contribute to our collective evolution. My vision is that together we raise our consciousness to live in coherence and in harmony.
In 2021, I founded Upsoul Center, a holistic health and wellness sanctuary to bring together the amazing like-minded community I have cultivated over the years for connection, healing, and empowerment. I look forward to having you be a part of it too!
I am a proud Bronx native and Harlem resident. In my personal time, I prioritize spending time with my beloved wife, family and friends. My joys are singing, dancing, making art, enjoying other people’s art, exploring the city and traveling the world. My self-care includes prayer, Self-Reiki, meditation, exercise, quiet time, learning and reflection. I remain open and curious about the world we live in and beyond. I’ve kept that trait pure since childhood.
