I was born premature in a refugee camp in Thailand as my parents were escaping the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia, we then migrated to Italy where we lived for 8 years then migrated to Australia in 1988. The foundation of my life started with a passion for entry in to the world & I carry this passion in all my life endeavors. As a result of life happening for me, I am dedicating my life to guiding others on a journey of inner child work to activate & re-discover who they were born to be. It's an amazing feeling when you remember what your 'why' is. MY view of the world is that no matter what the circumstances, everyone is a gift & should be doing what they desire deep in their hearts. It is my mission to open as many hearts as I can and the domino effect of this is opening minds to the limitless possibilities available to us all.
