Operations Manager
Tifa brings a wealth of expertise to the RISE team with over 8 years of supporting diverse small business’s in strategic business operations and creative direction.

She tends to this heart beat at RISE through collaboratively weaving the threads of our vision and mission together, with client care at the center.
Tifa is a dedicated advocate for holistic wellness, inspired by witnessing her mother's resilience through disabling physical trauma that was unaddressed in a holistic way by our traditional western medical system. Through life-saving interventions and harmful misdiagnoses, her Mother survived with the help of community, Physical Therapy, and developing a compassionate relationship to her pain. Tifa has a deep felt sense of empathy for those in pain, and her personal journey has shaped her passion in helping others on their path to healing and wellness, which led her to RISE.
Beyond her professional role, Tifa is a designer and fine artist creating soulful art inspired by Nature’s raw elemental beauty.
