In 2001, I took my first yoga class at a local gym and was hooked. Yoga offered me a place to destress after a busy day at work. I quickly outgrew classes at the gym, and began taking vinyasa flow 4-6 times a week at a local yoga studio. In 2006, I was approached by a studio owner to teach. I completed her 200-hour teacher training at YogaWorks in Costa Mesa and have been teaching ever since.  

I am flexible and understanding with students, encouraging them to move at their own pace while at the same time challenging them to go to the next level in their practice. I have been described by students as playful, creative, and challenging. I see yoga as a journey not a race, in which each student sets their goals for the year with me alongside them as a guide.
