I have always been fascinated with scents and how they can evoke memories or change your mood. Have you ever peeled an orange and were just flooded suddenly with a bright, happy feeling? Or smelled something that immediately evoked a memory? That's aromatherapy in a nutshell. The smell of cherry pie takes me back to my grandmother's kitchen, the smell of lemon wakes me up and makes me happy, the smell of coffee...well, who doesn't react in some way to the smell of coffee! We use our sense of smell for so much we don't even realize it.

I've studied the aroma-therapeutic properties of essential oils for over 10 years. I also worked in the natural foods and body care industry for over 4 years before developing my own line of aromatherapy products in 2003. My products have been in over 20 wonderful shops across the midwest.

I am into alot of things besides aromatherapy...my daughter, gardening (as long as that doesn't mean pulling weeds), the great outdoors, reading, music, theater and art.
Here's my blog if you're interested.
