About

Hello, I am always seeking opportunities to lead vinyasa-based classes and private lessons.

Additionally, I work one-on-one with cancer survivors as they navigate their way through their personal journeys. Leveraging my formal yoga training and my own personal life experiences with cancer, I am able to offer first-hand knowledge and a deep level of appreciation to my clients. From each session, I donate a portion of my income to my not for profit organization, The Arts of Courage Project, ACP. 100% of funds raised by ACP is designated to organizations that support cancer survivors and their loved ones. I completed my RYT 200 approved and intensive teacher training program at yogaview Chicago. My teachers were Tom Quinn, Quinn Kearney, Dorie Silverman, Jessica Carlin and Claire Mark. I began my practice in Chicago taking classes from Sharon Wentz, Jyl Fehrenkamp and Danny Benoit. These instructors were instrumental in introducing me to the limitless benefits of practicing yoga. As a lifelong athlete suddenly stricken with a a life-threatening illness at a young age, it was through the help of their kindness and passion for yoga that I began my own journey. I am forever grateful, and thus it is important that I share and pass on my knowledge to those whom may find themselves along a similar path. Please feel free to message me today for your first private or group session. Thank you!!
