I began practicing yoga in 2005 and immediately felt a deep connection to the practice. I loved how it left me feeling clear-headed, grounded, and ready to face the world. Over time, yoga became such a meaningful part of my life that I enrolled in a yoga teacher training—not originally to teach, but to deepen my own practice. To my surprise, that journey quickly inspired me to share the benefits of yoga with others.

I am a RYT 500 yoga teacher, certified through Heaven Meets Earth Yoga in Evanston, where I completed both my 200-hour and 300-hour trainings. I also hold a Chair Yoga certification and Reiki Level 3 certification.

Over the past 20 years, I’ve witnessed firsthand how my yoga practice has evolved, and that evolution has become the foundation of my teaching philosophy. I believe yoga should meet you where you are. As we change and grow, so should our practice.

My classes weave in pranayama, meditation, and yoga philosophy because I want students to experience yoga not just as a physical practice, but as a practical tool for daily life. Yoga doesn’t need to stay on the mat or in the studio. What you learn through the practice can be a steady companion through it all.
