About My Yoga Journey & My Evolving Work

I am a lifelong student and practitioner first and foremost and always will be! I am an Ayurvedic Yoga Therapist in training and study integrative health, religious studies, MindBody therapy, Vastu and Jyotish (Vedic astrology). I am in love with the healing arts and their intersections with social justice and our broad struggle toward collective liberation. I hold both privileged and oppressed identities. I have held many professional titles already in my young life and have worked in different capacities as a community organizer, operations manager, and campaign organizer, and have practiced various types of facilitation. Most importantly I am a humble student of these arts, of life, and of all the people I work with. I am most passionate about continuing to develop work that allows me the opportunity to guide others through the healing process, to help them ignite their inner flame so they may live a life that feels truly vibrant. I desire to help people heal and thrive! From there I seek to help others identify, embody, and live into their role in our ecosystem. The practices of yoga, Tantra, yoga nidra, Ayurveda and liberatory somatic psychology are the foundation of my practice and my work. I am passionate about offering services to historically marginalized and underestimated populations as well as working with trauma survivors and those in recovery.

I am blessed with the people who are in my life and who have and continue to light my path forward and honor the tradition of Tantra & Sri Vidya Yoga of the Himalayan Tradition. I owe a great deal of gratitude to my teachers Fannie Hungerford, Michelle Cassandra Johnson, Susanna Barkataki, Kathleen Whalen, Jacoby Ballard, Rebecca Sebastian, Indu Arora, Michele Lawrence, Natalie Brown, Yoli Maya Yeh, Christine Rodriguez, Jessica Patterson, faculty and staff at Off The Mat Into The World, Accessible Yoga, Embodied Philosophy, Yoga Veda Institute, Himalayan Institute, Inner Peace Yoga Therapy, and many others.
