Admissions Advisor

What excites me about my work is speaking with people who have an idea about what they want but they don’t know how to go about achieving it. With help, guidance, and a well-placed question you can help someone become the best possible version of themselves. Becoming your advisor means that I will be there with you every step of the way. Reach out to me even if you think you have a dumb question.

Kandaka Long

Admissions Advisor

I was inspired to get into holistic wellness from a deep-rooted passion that started in childhood—being drawn to herbs, natural healing, and the connection between mind, body, and spirit. Growing up between New Jersey, Denver, and later living in New York City, I saw firsthand the impact of stress, lifestyle, and environment on overall health. That awareness, combined with a desire to help others feel balanced, aligned, and well at a high level, led me to pursue holistic health and ultimately guide others on their wellness journeys.
