Welcome to my world of Light (Leit), and for stopping by for rays of shine!

I believe we can manifest what we most desire in life. But the biggest question everyone lives with is, how? It’s a secret, that isn’t a secret. It’s all in our communication.

Many people mistake communication as just speaking, signing or writing. But language is so much more than simple words strung together. It’s the children, but many individuals reach goals.

main way we create change in our lives– for better, or for worse. The same way babies cry and toddlers throw tantrums when they do not know what they want, so do adults.  They complain, nudge and scold. It is simply from the mere fact that at any age, we get what we focus on, modified by the way we express it. This is how I started helping not only

With my extensive background as an educator and life coach, with expertise in multi-languages, public speaking, leadership, and developing curricula, my gift to offer the world is to teach you how to share your own gifts with others.

At a very young age, I was curious about languages and the way people communicate. My coaching techniques are very inspired by this. After watching thousands of clients’ lives change, I’ve learned so much and know that my role in life is to help improve people’s lives.

So how can you do this? Whether you are a child, a teen or an adult, you can transform your life by tapping into the language you use as you describe yourself and communicate with others. Let me light the way within you!

If you’re struggling, I’m here to hold your hand if necessary and assist you in discovering your own truth, your own dreams for a brilliant life”.
