Reflector Children
The Reflector child is the barometer for the whole family.
If the Reflector child is crying, someone in the family is sad or emotionally down. If the Reflector child is laughing and skipping along, those around him or her are feeling good. The Reflector child reflects everything that is in the environment around them. In school, they want to sit in the middle of the circle. It is their natural place. NEVER rush a Reflector child to decide anything. They need a lot of time, a whole month, before they can know if something is right for them or not. Parents need to learn patience to be able to allow this child the time he or she needs to reflect on things. ~ Ra Uru Hu

I am a Human Design teacher, guide, and survivor whose path to purpose was forged through profound transformation. In 2012, a Stage 4 lung cancer diagnosis shattered the life I knew—and became the unexpected beginning of a deeper awakening. What followed was a journey through illness, the unraveling of a long marriage, and the quiet rebuilding of a self I had never fully met. Human Design found me in the midst of that unraveling—during a time of deep searching, blackouts of identity, and a hunger to remember who I really was. What began as a personal tool for survival and self-reclamation soon became a lifelong path. Human Design gave me language for what I had always felt but couldn’t explain. It helped me understand my energy, my wounds, my gifts—and how to live in alignment with my true nature.
Today, I teach Human Design not as a system of labels or rules, but as a living, breathing map back to the Self. My work is rooted in lived experience—because I know what it’s like to lose your way, and what it takes to come home to yourself. I specialize in guiding others through times of transition, awakening, and reinvention—helping them understand the unique blueprint they were born with, so they can navigate life with clarity, self-trust, and deep compassion. My gift lies in transmuting adversity into wisdom—and walking with others as they remember who they truly are.
