Building community and connection to each other and the natural world are at the heart of my work. Through my movement and mindfulness practices, I have found a greater awareness of my sense of self, empathy, healing, and community. I was born and raised in Southern California, but have since moved to the Pacific Northwest. I have been practicing yoga for almost two decades and have completed a 300 YT training with the SOMA Yoga School and Teacher Training at Bhakti Yoga and Movement Center. I work at a local, environmental nonprofit working with Tribes in our region to promote Indigenous stewardship and forest climate resilience. 

In my free time, I enjoy deepening my connections with plants and community, continuing to develop both my writing and yoga practices, and visiting family in Joshua Tree, California. You can often find my husband and I hiking with our two dogs all around the northwest, from the coast to the mountains and everywhere in between.
