Donna’s journey into holistic wellness is deeply personal. Following her transition from the United States Navy, where she served for over a decade as a Hospital Corpsman, she experienced Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and depression. This period was marked by emotional exhaustion, anxiety, and a loss of vitality, ultimately leading her to seek deeper healing.

In 2012, she began a transformative path through meditation and Reiki. With consistent practice, she experienced meaningful improvements in her mental and emotional well-being, including reduced anxiety, improved clarity, and restorative sleep. This personal healing journey became the foundation of her professional mission.

Alongside her healing work, Donna immersed herself in the study and practice of Ayurveda, integrating its principles of diet, lifestyle, and balance into her daily life. This holistic approach allowed her to cultivate a renewed sense of well-being and inspired her to expand her work as a global holistic consultant.

Donna is a certified Reiki Master in the Usui lineage, fourth degree from Takata. Her work integrates Ayurveda, Reiki, yoga, mindfulness, and counseling principles to develop individualized, whole-person wellness plans that honor the interconnectedness of mind, body, emotions, and spirit.

She is a member of the Association of Ayurvedic Professionals of North America (AAPNA), the Professional Wellness Alliance (PWA), Healy World, and The Universal Life Church. Her mission is to support healing at every level by empowering individuals with insight, compassion, and practical tools for transformation. Her vision is to help others achieve a state of balance, wholeness, and lasting freedom.
