With over 25 years of personal practice and a 500-hour E-RYT certification, I’ve spent much of my adult life learning from — and being shaped by — the teachings of yoga. I completed my initial 200-hour training in 2004, followed by an advanced 300-hour training in 2015. But it’s been the experience of living — through seasons of change, challenge, grief, joy, and growth — that has most profoundly informed both my practice and the way I teach.

I’m also the co-founder and lead teacher of Good Space Yoga School, where I guide others through teacher trainings and continuing education with an emphasis on presence, permission, and personal connection to the practice.

What began as a pursuit rooted in physical prowess and alignment has gradually become something much deeper. Over time, my practice has softened, slowed, and expanded inward — from chasing shapes to cultivating awareness; from precision to permission.

Today, I teach from a place of knowing that yoga is deeply personal. I believe in holding space for both movement and stillness, for strength and surrender, for effort and rest. In my classes, I aim to honor the sacred roots of the practice while also encouraging students to ask: Why are we doing what we’re doing? What are we chasing? And what would it feel like to let go?

Yoga, for me, is no longer about performance — it’s about coming home.
That’s the space I hope to hold for others, too.
