Moving my body has always been a part of my identity.  I grew up in California; I was raised in the Bay Area and I moved to San Diego to attend college at USD, where I competed for USD’s NCAA Division 1 tennis team.  Being a competitive tennis player was my whole existence until a back injury changed my life.  A doctor recommended yoga, and I found myself at my first class in 2010, nervous and unsure.  Yoga became the one thing that helped my recovery long term, and slowly over time as my body healed, my mind and spirit started to calm as well.  

Yoga became my passion and I completed my teacher training in 2015 at Prana Yoga Center in San Diego, California with Gerhard Gessner and Sara Deakin, and I have been teaching ever since.  My teaching style is influenced by my passion for flow, athletic background, love of dance, my current spiritual inspirations, and care for learning about my students.  

​

Back home in California, my teaching experience included Bird Rock Yoga, Trilogy Sanctuary and finally CorePower Yoga, the largest family of yoga studios in the US.  In 2022, my partner and I relocated to Australia.  I now call Bondi Beach home, where I am grateful to respect the stunning beauty of Bidjigal, Birrabirragal and Gadigal land.  I would love to see you in class at Power Living, Bondi Beach!
