About the Teacher
Why study with them?
My passion for yoga is met only by my passions for world travel and art. I was raised in Reno, Nevada by an artist Mother who always challenged me to view the world through a different lens. I attribute my love for Vinyasa flow and its endless combination sequences to my Mom, who instilled creativity into me at an early age.
After earning two bachelor's degrees from the University of Oregon I backpacked the world for one year, so far I have been to 21 countries and am always yearning for more. I came back to the States in 2009 and landed a job in San Diego as an Art Director/ Social Media Marketer. Although it was creative work, sitting at a desk all day was monotonous.
The spiritual, mental, and emotional connection yoga provided was the only thing keeping me sane in the crazy whirlwind industry of graphic design. In November 2014 I was hungry for more yoga, and I decided to pursue my RYT 2oo certification to deepen my understanding and practice. Over the 6 month course of earning my RYT 200 certification, I was humbled by the vast world of yoga.
It opened my eyes to new philosophies, techniques, mind-body connections, and experiences I never previously knew existed. "The more I learn the more I realize there is out there to know." I hope that from my classes each student will leave feeling an enlightened, positive energy, and a deeper connection with themselves.
