Your supportive guide and hand-holder on the journey to your fullest health.
I had recently moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career as an actor when I was diagnosed with Alopecia. Within six months, I went from Blonde to Bald.
It was my worst nightmare. Until it became my superpower.
How? Well, that was a process. And my journey has now beautifully led me to support you on yours.
My specialty lies in dealing with auto-immunity and whole body wellness, which includes your physical, mental and spiritual health.
Soon-to-be certified as a Transformational Nutrition Coach® through the Institute Of Transformational Nutrition, I have over a decade of experience in helping men and women live more empowered lives in addition to this specialized education.

The Full Story. Kind of.
I have Alopecia, AND I love it.
Ok... let me back up a bit.
I was born and raised in Sweden. After a lot of exploring the world and a theatre education in New York, I moved to Los Angeles to, you know... make it!
About a year and a half into my new life, I was diagnosed with Alopecia Areata (2013) after I rushed to the doctor in a panic after discovering a perfectly round bald spot hiding amongst my long, luscious blonde locks. I was back in my old hometown of London, UK at the time, and my doctor told me to keep an eye on it and recommended steroid injections if it got worse. That was it. I walked out of there in a daze, feeling scared, anxious and confused.
After a few days in London, I headed over to Sweden to visit family and decided to see a doctor there as well. Same diagnosis, same treatment offer.
Once back in LA, I figured, let's round this out and see what the doctors here have to say. Three doctors, three countries, same solution. At the time, no one thought to ask about the rest of my life, my diet, environmental factors, stressors etc. And down the rabbit hole I went. I was drawn to functional medicine right away, and knew that it would ultimately be up to me to determine how and who I wanted to be in this experience.
Long story short, after six months of losing my hair, I shaved off whatever was left and that's when the real journey began. (If you want to learn more about my journey, feel free to watch my TEDx talk).
I realize that it can be quite confronting for someone to hear that I love my auto immune condition, especially as they come to me with help because they are suffering from theirs. I suffered too. And that's where my journey is coming full circle. I am committed to your whole body health and wellness, and if you are reading this, that means you probably are too. I am not here for you to fall in love with your Alopecia, or auto-immune condition. I am here to hold your hand and gently challenge you as you navigate what's important to you. Your health isn't separate from you. It is you.
Today, I feel lucky to be acting, writing, directing and producing work that makes a difference; to be invited to speak at events and for organizations, AND... to fuse it all with my passion to help you live empowered, no matter what.
