Kelly’s road to feng shui started with her own healing journey. Through the ancient lens of feng shui with a modern approach, Kelly works with clients to create harmonious and intentional spaces to nurture their chi (energy) by uncovering subtle and subconscious energies that have blocked the road to recovery and revitalization.
