Meet the Team
Sarah Peeples ~ Owner/Lead Consultant
Hi there! My name is Sarah Peeples. I am the owner and Lead Terpene Consultant of Lavender Moon Wellness, a Non-traditional medicinal consultation company. A Connecticut native, I bring a diverse professional background in medicinal cannabis dispensaries and product manufacturing, pharmacy, retail, and hospitality to our practice. I hold a CT Pharmacy Technician license, A certification in Cannabis Business from The University of New Haven, along with certifications in Cannabis Consulting and Interpening Sommelier from the Trichome Institute, combining my practical experience with a strong academic foundation.
As a medical cannabis patient myself, I have firsthand experience in using terpenes to manage my health conditions, including Fibromyalgia, Rheumatoid Arthritis, PTSD, and other trauma-related conditions. Before discovering the benefits of medicinal terpenes, I struggled with conventional approaches, relying on alcohol and hypnotics, which ultimately failed to provide sustainable relief. Today, nearly five years later, I successfully manage my symptoms and flares using only terpenes locally sourced from nature as well as medicinal cannabis from a craft grower. I specifically search for terpenes Pinene, Myrcene, and Beta-Caryophyllene for their therapeutic effects.
Beyond my professional expertise, I enjoy cooking with cannabis and finding creative ways to incorporate it into my wellness routine. A deep connection to nature is essential for my well-being, allowing me to reconnect with mind, body, and spirit. Whether hiking, walking along the beach collecting sea glass, or spending time with close friends, I embrace the outdoors as a vital part of my holistic approach to life.
With compassion, confidence, and a personal understanding of the healing journey, I offer a welcoming space for those seeking to explore the benefits of medicinal terpenes. I am fully committed to guiding our clients toward effective, personalized solutions, always with consideration of privacy and professionalism.
Laci Vitiello ~ Consultant
Hello! I'm Laci Vitiello a Connecticut native with over 20 years of experience in the medical field. With a 15-year background as a pharmacy technician and five years working in a medicinal dispensary, I blend traditional medical knowledge with holistic approaches to health and wellness. I am a certified Cannabis Consultant and hold a Cannabis Sommelier Certification from the Trichome Institute, enhancing my expertise in the therapeutic uses and nuances of cannabis.
As a medical cannabis patient myself, I bring a unique perspective to my work. Supported by my husband, who serves as my caregiver, I've found cannabis to be an invaluable ally in managing chronic pain and PTSD, among other conditions. The terpenes I find particularly beneficial are Myrcene, Limonene, and Linalool, which complement my use of traditional medicine and support my overall wellness.
Outside of work, I love spending time in nature and enjoy hiking, walking, and kayaking. My connection to the outdoors aligns with my views: striving for balance and well-being in all aspects of life. I am dedicated to helping others discover the therapeutic potential of cannabis, providing guidance grounded in both science and empathy.
Yukiea Brown-Parlsey ~ Terpene Herbalist
Hello! My name is Yukiea Brown- Parlsey. I am a herbalist with a unique blend of Southern roots and a life shaped by the diverse experiences of being a military child. Now residing in Connecticut, I bring my rich background in healthcare billing, insurance, and authorizations, with over seven years of experience working in hospitals, infusion therapy, internal medicine, and pediatrics, to my passion for herbal medicine.
With a Family Herbalist Certificate from Commonwealth Holistic Herbalism, certifications in Cannabis Consulting, and Cannabis Sommelier from the Trichome Institute, I combine my knowledge of traditional and alternative therapies to help others explore the healing properties of herbs and terpenes. I began studies in business at the University of Georgia and am currently completing my Bachelors in Health Information Management at Western Governors University. As a member of the American Herbalist Guild, I am actively working towards becoming a Registered Clinical Herbalist, dedicating myself to the many practice hours required for this recognition.
As a mother in a blended family of five, caregiving has been a central part of my life. While it has brought deep fulfillment, I understand firsthand how physically, mentally, and emotionally taxing it can be. Managing generalized anxiety, ADHD, and the impacts of significant childhood and other traumas, I rely on a combination of traditional and alternative medicines and therapies. I would find particular benefits in cannabis terpenes like Pinene, Limonene, and Caryophyllene to support my well-being.
An avid gardener and passionate lifelong learner, I strive to fill my days with activities that nourish my soul—baking, hiking, foraging, and discovering new plants. My approach to clients is warm and friendly and my professional expertise assists me in being a trusted guide for those seeking a deeper understanding of herbal and terpene-based therapies. I am dedicated to supporting others to find balance and wellness on their unique healing journeys.
