For the past 6 years I have dedicated myself to better understanding the natural world, the medicine it has to offer and how I may help bridge the connection between the challenges we face as a collective and the remedies nature has to offer. I founded Evolved Mushrooms in 2019, focusing on Mycology (mushroom) education, functional mushrooms, and crafting our own mushroom extracts for our community. This year I founded Evolved Wellness, taking new strides in understanding herbal medicine and how it may synergize with this foundation of mycology.
My background and passion is in the natural sciences, fitness, human health, mysticism and of course in mushrooms and plants. I studied Biology, Ecology and ultimately graduated with a B.S in Public Health, with an emphasis in Health Sciences from the OHSU-PSU School of Public Health in Oregon. My background in public health, paired with working in the Department of Pathology at OHSU in the primary medical lab gave me deep insight into allopathic medicine and its contrast with natural medicine. After initially working extensively in kitchens funding my way through college and in a few corporate positions, I ultimately found the freedom in challenge of entrepreneurship and find myself preferring to work directly for people through my practice.
Over the past 6 years it has been my honor to help facilitate my clients in their own healing journey. It has been the exploration of a lifetime helping source remedies, collaborate in new business partnerships, immerse myself in studies, and design a connective business that resembles mycelium itself - rooted in connection, sharing resources and developing symbiotic relationships with those around me.
In addition to working directly with clients, I play a role as a wholesaler, teacher, alchemist (I'm not sure what other title fits here honestly), mystic and herbalist, aiming to be fully certified by mid October. It is the honor of a lifetime to work with the natural world and work join my community in this movement of healing.
