I grew up in the quiet spaces between grief and logistics. As a mortician's daughter, the realities of end-of-life were never hidden away; they were part of our daily rhythm. I learned early on that navigating loss requires two distinct kinds of strength: the capacity to hold emotional space, and the meticulous attention to detail required to manage the practical aftermath.

"The operational complexity of death is often what overwhelms us when we are least equipped to handle it."

For more than 30 years, I honed my operational skills in the demanding environments of tech giants, including a significant tenure at Google. I specialized in taking chaotic, multifaceted problems and organizing them into clear plans my team could follow.

The desire to combine my deep-rooted comfort with the end-of-life space and decades of professional skills led me to pursue and achieve my Death Doula certification. This helped formalize my ability to provide non-medical, holistic support to individuals and families navigating transitions.

Threshold Works is the culmination of this journey. It is a practice built on personal lived experience, structured by high-level operational leadership, and guided by profound empathy. I am here to project-manage the hardest parts of your planning or your loss, so you can focus on what truly matters.
