Hello, I’m Jessie! I am a Santa Barbara dwelling plant-lover and my current top five favorite things are ceramics, home-made lattes, reading fiction, friends, and soup.

I hold a B.S. in Biopsychology from UCSB and have worked with all kinds of athletes: rugby, soccer, lacrosse, tennis, volleyball, beach volleyball, and triathletes. I was a strength and conditioning coach at the collegiate club and youth levels for 7+ years and have worked with private training clients for more than a decade.

My own health journey led me to health coaching. I had a lot of chronic pain and anxiety early in life and went through the full gambit of doctors who couldn’t quite put it all together. Most of my curiosity about health stemmed from trying to help myself feel as good as I could. Through an immense amount of struggle and frustration I learned that I had to do things on my own terms. I needed more than just a simple medical fix (although that would have been nice), I had to piece together my own version of a healthy lifestyle to support my specific needs and challenges. The more that I learned about my own health, the more my anxiety eased and the better I felt. I realized that the effort that I put into learning could benefit others.

I am grateful that I have been on the meandering path because it has exposed me to many ways of thinking and many tools that I am now able to share with my clients. I feel fortunate that I never became too entrenched in just one way of thinking. I feel strongly that my purpose is to help others connect to their individual sense of well being and that the variety of my personal experiences helps me to do that in a way that truly serves others.

I feel very lucky to have cultivated work that I really love and that feels deeply purposeful.

Cheers!
