I took my very first yoga class 14 years ago at a local gym with mirrors all around and the A/C pumping! I remember being nervous to try something new, unsure of the poses or even where to put my mat. But I left feeling different than I had ever felt doing any other sport, movement, or wellness adventure. I felt strong, empowered, relaxed, and calm all at the same time. It lit a spark in me that I knew would never go out.

I found a way to get to yoga as much as I could. I was in a constant state of learning about not only the practice but about myself. I learned to listen to my body, and I was surrounded by an amazing community that was woven together for the shared love of yoga.

I am forever grateful to be on this path of learning, growing, and witnessing. I truly believe we have the best shot of happiness when we are in a state of growth!

I am so lucky to have received my 200-hour Yoga Teacher training at Inner Bliss in 2014. I am currently immersed in my 300-hour training with Janet Stone and am always learning from the brilliant teachers and students at Inner Bliss.

I practice yoga because… I can't imagine my life without it.

I teach yoga because… I love the chance to hold space for students to have an experience in their bodies that is different from their habitual patterns, both in their bodies and their minds.

I find peace…  on my mat surrounded by the amazing Inner Bliss Yoga community.

I have been most influenced by… the opportunity to witness and be a part of such an amazing community of humans at Inner Bliss.

Some of my favorite snacks are…. Cosmic Crisp apples, Green Farm Juicery Tropical Smoothie Bowl and my friend Lisa's Greek Dip!

I am happiest when…. I have my face to the sun and feed in the sand.

I couldn’t live without… my family.

When I’m not at Inner Bliss, you might find me… on a walk with my Golden Doodle, Jerry!

My favorite mantra is… Just Keep Swimming ~ inspired by Dory from Finding Nemo.

Every day I… am filled with gratitude for this practice and this community.
