Overcoming addiction and depression laid the foundation for my journey to yoga & iRest. As a young child I dealt with severe depression that later manifested into alcoholism as an adult. After many years wrestling with this addiction I finally broke the cycle through meditation, yoga & mindfulness practices.

While completing my 200 hr YTT I became captivated by the ancient tradition of Yoga Nidra. I discovered deep rest, a connection to my essential nature, and a oneness that moved me to pursue this as my primary modality to heal others. I have since gone on to study the Bihar Tradition of Yoga Nidra, Yin Yoga and am currently pursuing a master's in Counseling Psychology.

I am to take the teachings of iRest, various yoga traditions, and my own life experiences to help my students overcome their own obstacles and live lives of intentionality.
