I am a movement and mindfulness teacher and nutrition coach, with a degree in Kinesiology. I have additional areas of study in traumatic brain injury, nervous system and yoga nidra. I am a 500 E-RYT and a Yoga Medicine Registered Therapeutic Specialist. I have spent the last 15 years focused on the health and wellbeing of first responders and veterans by specifically training in PTSD, combat stress and traumatic brain injury resilience.

I started yoga almost twenty years ago as a part of my fitness regimen. I gravitated towards Bikram for a number of years. Finally, in 2009, I made yoga a permanent part of my life, adding in ayurvedic living, meditation and daily practice. I even incorporated it in training my triathletes for my coaching business.

Eventually, it blossomed into a passion for teaching. I moved to Georgia and open Ebb & Flow Yoga Surf Studio, which we continue to operate today.

I have a short frame with a muscular build. In fact, I was told that I was too muscular to do yoga by my first yoga teacher. Luckily, the force was strong and I kept going back to prove my worthiness.

Years later, I want to inspire people to live strong and healthy lives and embrace their bodies whatever they may be. I do not believe in diets. In fact, I don’t do it at all. Body shaming has no place in yoga and diets have no place in living a full and exciting life.

I graduated from the University of Maryland with a self-created degree in Kinesiology, Business, Journalism and Leadership. I am or have been certified as a USA Triathlon Level I Coach, US Swim Coach, AFAA Group Fitness Instructor, ACE Personal Trainer, and thai massage therapist.
