ABOUT ME

My journey on the yogic path began when I ventured into the realm of recovery from a substance use disorder in 2011. My background in psychology and human development and my professional yoga teacher training programs have equipped me with a diverse set of tools to help others with their own journey towards wellness.

Incorporating mindfulness, yoga philosophy, Ayurveda, Eastern traditions, Western psychology, and neuroscience into my work with others shows a deep understanding and appreciation for the multidimensional nature of the human experience. I approach my work from a comprehensive perspective, considering the physical, emotional, social and spiritual aspects of my clients' lives.

​

In addition to my private practice, I'm also part of the training faculty for the Institute for Living Yoga located in Portland, OR. I love the work I do there, too!

​

I'm a proud parent to an incredibly talented tattoo artist, my daughter, who brings immense joy to my life. Outside of work, you'll often find me seeking solace on a mountaintop, as nature holds a special place in my heart.
