I came to the mat like so many people do. I was hurting emotionally and looking for an outlet to help me regain control over what felt like an impossible situation. I found myself in my yoga practice. I healed and opened my heart to forgiveness, compassion and an unyielding connection to the Divine. The healing that I encountered was mystical and swift and I knew immediately that yoga would be my life's work.

My career began in sports medicine, helping athletes of all ages return to playing and competing after an injury. Through my experience in orthopedic rehabilitation I saw the importance of taking care of ourselves not only to excel in the activities in which we pursue, but more importantly, to live healthier, happier lives.
