Feng Shui is a dynamic energy practice that helps you manifest your dreams and goals into vibrant reality.

health • money • relationships family • reputation • spirituality

success • self-expression

Feng Shui is not just about “furniture arranging” or installing water fountains. It is about creating a “blueprint” of what you desire to change or create in your life and then activating that blueprint by using ancient energy alignment techniques in your home or office.

I became interested in Feng Shui when I set out to disprove it and found that it works, often quickly. Since then, I have become a student in Master Lin Yun’s school in San Francisco where I have been privileged to learn from world renowned Feng Shui practitioners and teachers.
