Who I am

Here are a few things about me!

  • I am a yoga teacher. I have been practicing on and off again since 2003! My first class was sometime around my senior year of high school and the class I took was in a gym in our neighborhood. I completed my first teacher training in 2015 (200 hours) and after having taught for just a few years, I wanted more! I completed my 300 hours in 2018. Both of these trainings were with CorePower Yoga.

  • I have taught yoga in the community, at a parole office, a police academy, prisons, fire departments and most recently to a high school boys basketball team!

  • I have completed my 600-hour Ayurvedic Health Counselor certification through Kerala Ayurveda USA. And I am very excited to be continuing in my studies with Kerala to complete my Ayurvedic Practitioner Certificate.

  • In May of 2023, I completed my Level 2 Reiki Practitioner certification. Reiki has since been a part of my daily rituals, along with Ayurveda and Yoga.

  • Outside of my healing studies and work, I worked for nearly 12 years with the Colorado Department of Corrections (CDOC). I served as a Community Parole Officer, Training Specialist and the Training Coordinator. Through these positions, I realized the love I have for working with folks 1:1 and the passion I have for developing and teaching material.

  • I have my undergrad in Social Work and Master’s in Criminal Justice and Law Enforcement Administration with an emphasis on Organizational Learning and Development from Colorado State (Fort Collins and Global).

  • Though my tenure with the CDOC ended in 2019, my work in the Criminal Legal system has not ceased. Since then, I have taught academic courses at local community colleges in Colorado, I have worked for a local county focusing on Community Safety and Well-being and I have been working with the Alliance for Criminal Justice Innovation as a content developer and professional coach.

  • It is from working in a stressful environment that I found balance with the help of these practice. These practices, Yoga, Ayurveda and Reiki, are sacred. They are life changing. It is an absolute honor to be able to provide these practices to you.

In all dealings (activities), one should adopt the middle path and avoid extremes.

I acknowledge that I am practicing Ayurveda and Yoga which originated over 5,000 years ago in India. Ayurveda is both an ancient practice and a form of mainstream medicine. I am grateful to the Acharyas; Original Teachers, Practitioners and Root Texts of this traditional 'Science of Life' and allied Vedic Practices. May this wisdom continually permeate through me and through the world.
