About the Creator
​
For years I’d come up with ideas, write them down and they'd live happily ever after in my notebook. That's over! Peak•ing is the result of my experiencing some hurdles in life, while maintaining my image on social media. In 2017, the reality and social media appearance of my life couldn't have been more contrasting. As I became more transparent about what I was actually experiencing, I realized I wasn't alone in the struggle. Those conversations fueled me and shifted my perspective of my process. I operated in this transparency for several months and realized how benefincial transparency could be in this age of Social Media. So here we are, chasing these dreams that seem so far away, especially by comparison, and continuing to chase them anyway.
​
While embracing my newly found transparency, I also realized my love for frangrances and how it had a major impact on my mood. I wanted to offer people the same experience. After searching for candlemakers that would customize scents, I decided to try it out myself. 1.5 years later, during the start of the pandemic, I had nothing but time and tons of candle making products. I used that time to perfect my chemistry and create what's before you today, Peaks Candles.

About Peak•ing
​
Peaking- a high point in a course of development, is the name of this platform because the battles we face are only a part of us developing into our greatest selves. My goal is to have anyone that comes across this platform to leave feeling empowered, relatable and confident in their individual paths.

"I used that time to perfect my chemistry and create what's before you today, Peaks Candles."
I love filling my time with things that means the most to me. As a God-serving Entrepreneur, Project Manager, Live Production hobbyist and all around storytelling creative, the calendar can be full (thankfully,) but I'll always make time for relational building. Let's connect! I have so much more to share!
What I know that I know, that I know about me is I like to empower people. I like to help people. I like to see people operating in the best version of themselves and being successful. Thankfully, envy and I have never known each other too well and because of our distant relationship, I’ve been able to allow in other forces like joy, positivity and confidence. Those same forces are the roots of this platform.
I don’t have it all figured out. I’m actually a lot further from my idea of success than I'd like to be. And that's okay. Life is full of ups and downs and because we’re living in the era of social media and all seemingly living our best lives, the transparency of having struggles are lost, almost as if it never happens. I’ve decided to pull the veil on my own life, not to complain or cry, but to empower and influence by using my personal experiences to bridge the gap of a happy life being a perfect life. Life isn’t full of perfect days but by practicing a shift in perspective you can definitely have a lot more of them.
