About Mayra

Throughout my career I've worn many hats and worked in a number of fields including restaurant and retail operations, banking, financial services, community health, higher education, and publishing.  I hold a bachelor's degree in business administration, earned a smattering of minors (communications, Spanish, community counseling) and a master's degree in health education and promotion from Kent State University, where I taught for 10 years in the School of Health Sciences. 

I'm trained in energy medicine and have my Reiki Master's certification. I taught at Case Western Reserve University's Weatherhead School of Management. I'm a mom and was a caregiver, too. 

This year, as I "unofficially" turned-in my teaching hat to devote myself to new roles and ventures, as well as continue my writing and publishing work, one thing is clear to me: I wouldn't change anything about my journey for it has brought me precisely where I'm meant to be and doing work I'm now called to do.    

May you 'stay centered and groovy' and close to your heart, always.
