Our Team

 A lifelong student of the mind-body-spirit connection, I approach yoga as a practice that harmonizes physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being.

In June 2024, I completed my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training from the Portland Yoga Project, where we had thorough lessons and discussions on more than just the history and philosophy of yoga but also anti-racism & decolonization practices and queer competency. 

The vision that I seek to curate throughout my yoga practice and public offerings consists of hosting accessible, light-hearted, welcoming spaces where practitioners can establish a deeper connection with themselves and craft an internal center-peace that guides and nourishes one through the peaks and valleys of one's day and life.

In my classes, I welcome curiosity, self-compassion, and nourishing self-talk, encouraging students to find what feels sound and sustainable for their unique bodies. I hope students leave feeling grounded, empowered, and better attuned to their inner wisdom.

Outside the studio, I enjoy capturing moments behind a camera, keeping abreast of astrological transits, applying Feng Shui remedies to various environments, listening to or making music, immersing myself in nature, making fresh juices and longevity meals, reading, and writing!
