My Story
There was a time in my life when I felt broken, lost, wounded, and desperately searching for peace, identity, love, and purpose. Outwardly, people may not have fully seen the battle happening inside of me, but inwardly I was carrying pain, confusion, fear, and heaviness that I didn’t know how to escape.
I spent decades of my life searching for fulfillment in women, sex, substances, possessions, status, money, etc but nothing ever truly satisfied the deep ache in my soul. No matter how hard I tried to fix myself, strive harder, or hold everything together, I still felt empty and exhausted. I longed to feel seen, safe, loved, and whole.
In 2017, Jesus met me in the middle of my brokenness.
At one of the darkest points in my life, when I felt hopeless and desperate, Jesus revealed Himself to me in a real and personal way. He didn’t reject me in my mess. He didn’t shame me. He met me with love, truth, mercy, and grace. For the first time, I began to understand that Jesus was not distant — He was pursuing me all along.
In 2018, I completely surrendered my life to Him, everything began to change.
Jesus started healing the deep wounds in my heart, renewing my mind, restoring my identity, and teaching me who I truly was through Him. He showed me that my pain did not disqualify me — He could redeem it. He took the ashes of my life and began creating something beautiful for His glory.
One of the most powerful things I witnessed was seeing Jesus transform lives from spiritual death to life. Watching His love radically change people confirmed to me that His power is real and that no one is beyond redemption.
Now, my passion is to help others encounter the same healing, freedom, identity, and hope that I found in Jesus. That is part of why Beauty for Ashes Healing was born — to create a place where wounded people can encounter the love of Christ, experience inner healing, and discover who they truly are in Him.
I especially have a heart for people who feel rejected, forgotten, ashamed, confused, or spiritually wounded because I know what it feels like to desperately need hope. I want people to know that Jesus still heals, restores, delivers, and transforms lives today.
My story is not ultimately about my brokenness — it is about the faithfulness of Jesus.
If He could rescue, heal, and restore me, He can do it for anyone.
