About Me

I was born and raised in New Jersey in a female centered family. I have always had an appreciation for yoga and alternative approaches to health. I have been a student of yoga since 1992 and have experienced many deep changes in myself since beginning my yogic practice. I am honored to be able to provide guidance for others on their journey towards wholeness.

I received both my Bachelors degree in Psychology and my Masters degree in Psychological Services from Kean University in Union, NJ. While completing my MA, I graduated with my first 200 hour Hatha yoga teachers certification in 2002. After graduation, I decided to move to Rhinebeck, New York and begin working at The Omega Institute for Holistic Studies. I loved my job as the Guest Services Manager and truly enjoyed the three years that I spent at Omega. After taking numerous workshops at Omega with Gurmukh, the leading Kundalini Yoga and Meditation teacher in the U.S., I continued my yogic studies and received my 200 hour certification as a Kundalini Yoga & Meditation teacher from 3HO. While working at Omega, I realized that I have a passion for supporting others on their path towards wholeness. Towards this end, I decided to return to school and focus on a transpersonal and somatic approach to psychological counseling and healing. While completeing my second Masters degree I attended and completed the KRI taught 100 hour - Conscious Pregnancy training, therefore adding prenatal yoga to my schedule. I completed my second Masters degree in Counseling Psychology in 2008, and I have just completed my hours to sit for licensure as a Marriage and Family Therapist. Currently, I teach yoga classes and workshops that focus on using our bodies as a compass leading us to a fuller, deeper life.
