In March 2021, I witnessed the profound healing potential of psychedelics in a therapeutic setting. However, I also saw firsthand the consequences of malpractice and unethical facilitation, which underscored the importance of proper vetting and support. Seeking to process this experience, I found community through integration circles—spaces where I could reflect, heal, and connect with others who deeply understood the significance of this work.

Through intentionality, safety, and education, I discovered the transformative power of responsible psychedelic use. This led me to formally train as a Psychedelic Integration Coach through TAM Integration’s year-long program. I actively facilitate integration circles with the Brooklyn Psychedelic Society, contribute to their Journey Cohort Program, and assist in ceremonies with various groups. I am also listed in their members-only directory of vetted facilitators.

Additional professional trainings includes:

• MAPS Intro & Advanced MDMA/Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy Training (June 2023) – with Michael & Annie Mithoefer, Harvey Schwartz, Marcela Ot’alora, and Bruce Poulter.
• Guiding Psilocybin Therapy Sessions & Facing Mortality (May 2024) – with Mary Cosimano, LMSW of Johns Hopkins Center for Psychedelic and Consciousness Research.
• Permitted Psilocybin Worker in Oregon (January 2025).

I am committed to deepening my knowledge in harm reduction, ethics, safer spaces, and trauma-informed facilitation. To enhance preparedness, I have also pursued medical and emergency training, including certifications in CPR (adult & pediatric), AED, and First Aid.

Outside of the psychedelic space, I have spent over a decade as a commercial & music video producer and own a film production company. I was a founding member of the Stand With Production movement, which successfully established Local 111, the first national union for commercial production workers.

I am deeply engaged in the MDMA-assisted healing community and have trained extensively in somatic healing, embodiment practices, and trauma-informed facilitation, including deep study with ISTA and other transformational education programs. Additionally, I have studied and assisted with Clinical Psychologist Dr. Stacy Ellis in her trauma-informed Liberation workshop, which focuses on healing the outer child.

Beyond my work, I love music, dancing (5Rhythms), hiking, jogging, Pilates, yoga, traveling, exploring arts & sciences, meditation, and lifelong learning.
