About Me
I am passionate about my work in the healing arts, and I am committed to sharing my knowledge and understanding to help others find harmony, health, and vibrancy in their lives.
My exploration in the ancient Vedic sciences first began in 2000 when I discovered Yoga. After developing my practice for more than a decade and a half, I became a 200 hour Registered Yoga Teacher in 2017. From there, I was lead to study Ayurveda, the sister science of Yoga, and became a Certified Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor in 2018. I have continued to rely on these beautiful practices to maintain steadiness, balance, peace, and calm in my life. My deep soul work and understanding of the mind/body connection eventually brought me to the field of therapeutic massage and bodywork in 2017, and I became a Licensed Massage Therapist in 2018. This past April, I obtained my Master of Science in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine, and I am currently in the process of getting licensed to practice here in NJ.
In 2017, I returned to my roots here on the Jersey Shore with my daughter after spending 15 years teaching English in middle and high schools in San Francisco.
My healing modalities, classes, and workshops emphasize the connection between the mind, body, and soul, and work deeply with energy through the chakra system, meridians, acupressure, hands-on Reiki techniques, and Qigong energy movement.
