I have been talking to spirit since the age of 4. My first experience was a spirit by the name of Jenny, who lived in our house in Frankland Ma. Since that time so long ago I have been on a quest for knowledge and understanding of why. That question led me to why I am here, what am I supposed to do. So, I started searching for mentors who would share their knowledge and help me to control me every growing gifts.
Yes, I talk with Spirit and loved ones, but it was the physical pain and their emotions that were hard to handle. That is when I found out I was also an Empathic and Energy reader. So, I went further into my learning and started Taking Reiki classes and became Reiki Master Teacher. Still not Satisfied with my understanding. The next step was a certification as Holistic Heath councilor and practitioner. Still not enough so I went for my Doctorate as a HHCP and succeeded. Still wanting more next was crystal healing, Chakras, Auras, Runes. I am still to this day taking classes. All this led me to who am I. So started to research my Family and took a DNA test. That is when the Who came into place. I am A direct descendent of the Pics and Danes. Today you would call Us Celtics and Vikings. So, this led me to learning more. I will never stop learning.
My quest and persistence led me to where I am today. Suzieasp3@gmail.com

Keith Ottersberg
I've experienced paranormal activity since I was six years old. The first encounter I had tramatized me, and throughout my life the paranormal activity surrounding me has had a negative impact on several of my relationships. As I got older, the activity began to intensify, and I needed to find answers; the why's, the how's, etc. Because of my need for answers, I had our home investigated twice by two different teams. During that time, others began to contact me for help. I arranged several investigations for one of those teams, and in exchange was allowed to investigate with them and learn. That particular team split into two. I was aked to join one of those teams. Eventually, I decided to form my own team, and Cobra Paranormal was born. I recieved help from some very special people and we were able to end the oppression of paranormal activity in my own life. I contacted The Dead Files who did an episode on my home. Amy Allen sent a group called The Spirit Mechanix in to help. I'm now a member of this team. It is because of this that I feel compelled to help others do the same. It was also through this process that I discovered abilities which I never understood before and some I didn’t know I had. I'm now drawn to help others understand their experiences and learn how to handle them before problems are escalated, and relationships and families are divided.
