For over two decades, my yoga mat has been my place of coming home and deep
healing. My journey in the healing arts began in 2007 with an Ashtanga teacher training
under David Swenson, sparking a lifelong passion for using yoga, massage, and
bodywork to help others connect with their true selves and innate healing abilities.
After expanding my expertise to youth mindfulness as a certified Yoga Ed™ instructor
and completing my massage training in Oregon, I relocated to Asheville in 2010 and
immediately fell in love with these mountains. I deeply resonated with the mission at
Asheville Community Yoga and spent years as a dedicated student before completing
the ACY teacher training program in 2025. Today, I am honored to support our
community both as a front desk associate and as an instructor teaching youth and chair
yoga classes. In my free time, you’ll find me exploring the forest and mountain trails with
my boy as much as possible.
