My yoga journey began in 2000, when I stepped into my first class seeking a new physical challenge—and I was instantly hooked. The strength, focus, and movement drew me in, but over time, I realized there was so much more waiting beneath the surface. As my curiosity grew, I felt a deep desire to go further, which led me to complete my Yoga Teacher Training at Jiva Yoga Center in 2011.

That training was truly transformative. It opened my eyes to the richness of yoga beyond the physical postures—the breath, the mindfulness, the philosophy, and the way the practice begins to ripple out into every part of life. It was then that yoga became not just something I did, but something I lived.

I’m passionate about helping others fall in love with yoga in their own unique way—whether it’s through movement, stillness, or the subtle shifts that come from simply showing up on the mat. I especially love witnessing how the lessons we learn in practice begin to take root off the mat, in everyday life—in how we breathe, relate, and show up for ourselves and others.

When I’m not teaching or practicing, you can find me spending time with my greatest joy—my 3 sweet daughters and 3 grand babies! They remind me daily of the importance of presence, patience, and love… all of which yoga continues to cultivate in my life.

Whether you're new to yoga or deepening your practice, I’m honored to walk this path alongside you. Let's breathe, move, and grow—together.
