In 2016, I became a mother for the first time, welcoming a child who became an endless source of inspiration. This experience turned my entire world upside down, evoking feelings as touching as they were powerful. It prompted a deep reflection on my vision of parenthood and the profound changes this birth brought to our lives. The idea of having a secular naming ceremony felt natural. Since then, I have been dedicated to creating and officiating these beautiful ceremonies, along with memorial services for funerals and tributes.

After years of celebrating large ceremonies, I now focus on the profound importance of intimate unions and elopements. In a world where genuine connections often feel fleeting, I am dedicated to helping couples celebrate their love in meaningful ways that resonate with their values.

My commitment extends beyond the celebration itself; I empower conscious couples to nurture their bond before and after their wedding.

After spending years in a field where image and profits were the sole markers of success, I found myself increasingly adrift. My core values and aspirations were being trampled, demanding the space they deserved.

Love entered my life at a pivotal moment, prompting a significant change. My husband and I decided to create our wedding ceremony oursevles to emphasize the profound meaning behind our commitment. Channeling my love for words, I articulated our feelings, and everything fell into place.

Simultaneously, I pursued higher education and chose to base my dissertation on the theme of symbolic ceremonies. After obtaining my diploma, I was determined to explore this field further. I started my own business alongside my job, eventually leaving that role to fully embrace my passion as a humanist celebrant.

I have an eclectic taste, but I particularly adore electro. Music serves as a source of inspiration for my writing. My love for music has deep roots, influenced by my musician father, who now resides among the stars.

I find joy in exploring vintage furniture, decor, and atmospheres. Roaming through flea markets, I revive the beauty of the past, often overshadowed by contemporary conformity.
