Fueled since childhood with a spirit of passion and exploration, Yoga came into my life while I was working in corporate advertising in New York City and felt completely disconnected from my body, heart, and life’s purpose. This was my first encounter with having true understanding about how the quality of my life was dependent on my internal state. I realized that my energy and nervous system needed some loving affection and care. I left everything I knew to do just that…to take care of my Spirit.

I was determined to heal myself holistically. I immersed myself in different cultures to experience alternative ways of living. I became fascinated in studying and integrating many practices and techniques from a variety of traditions, including Yoga, Yoga Therapy (Viniyoga), Shamanism, Buddhism, Soul Transition work and Music/Sound which helped me to peel away the veils of suffering that were dimming my light and depleting my life force. A large part of my journey has been about reviving my spirit, a rediscovery and befriending my authentic self.

Following what my heart was called to do infused me with enormous Vīrya, the energy/inner strength, to continue to take risks and remain steady on a path aligned with what made my Spirit flourish despite the innumerable challenges along the way.
