Meet Your Holistic Wellness Guide
Working with Oprah on her 2020 Vision Tour
A SoCal girl at heart, I love waking up with the sun, chasing waves, and adventuring in nature. I’m also just as content sipping tea and reading a book in bed.
After receiving my BFA in Dance and a minor in Communications from Cal State Long Beach, I spent over a decade in Los Angeles working as a professional dancer. Making a career out of my passion was fun and exhilarating, but the nature of the industry left me feeling inadequate and constantly searching for validation and acceptance from something or someone outside of myself. I never felt like enough.
The only gig I truly needed to book was the job of unconditionally loving myself. Spoiler alert: I discovered I am wildly more than enough (and so are you).
While dancing, I also became a makeup artist and certified group fitness instructor. From barre to HIIT, I was painting faces and toning abs all across La La Land, and I was one of the best in the biz. But with all my focus on the external, my mind could barely do a bicep curl.
I’ve always been an advocate for change, and you best believe I made one. I started learning Tantric meditation at a local studio and shortly after became a Reiki practitioner, which opened the door to my spiritual journey.
My heart called for more. I embarked on a solo adventure to Bali to study yoga, the kind that asks for more stillness than chaturangas. My first 200-hour yoga teacher training was absolutely pivotal in my life-changing transformation. In the stillness, I fell in love…with myself.
Wanting more, I uprooted my life and moved to Bali. After diving deep into practice and learning what it meant to be a yogini, my teacher offered me a job teaching at the studio where I trained. I was honored. I taught while simultaneously soaking up every nugget of knowledge I could, studying just as much as I was surfing.
Eventually, I felt pulled back to the States to share what I had been learning with my community and beyond.
Since then, my work has taken me through unexpected doors. Collaborations and teaching opportunities with wellness and movement spaces like Tonal, Alter Me, Hyperice, Fabletics, PopFit Sugar, and Kinrgy have helped me expand. I’ve also had the honor of touring with Oprah and guiding movement experiences for Tony Robbins online seminars. These moments stretched and shaped me in ways I continue to integrate.
Along the way, I learned to play the ukelele and harmoium so I could infuse more chanting into my prctice. I even got some gorgeous alchemy crystal tones bowls and began connecting deeper with sound as medicine.
Soon after I was drawn to study with The Shakti School and became an Ayurvedic Lifestyle Coach and Health Counselor, deepening into the ancient rhythm of Tantric healing and softening my edges with a more feminine approach to living.
And still, the most meaningful thread has been quieter. Keeping my head down and building my offerings and community has been the most fulfilling part of this journey. Creating spaces where people gather, connect, unravel, and remember themselves is such a gift. To see the light in their eyes get brighter, to hear their voice grow stronger, to feel their energy expand and soften, oh my goddess! This transformation is what stays with me. Each individual that I witness coming home to themselves keeps my fire burning.
This is what I’ve been called to do. And while living my dharma hasn’t always been easy, it’s so worth it! My wild heart takes me on many adventures so I am currently based between North County San Diego and the Sunny Coast of Queensland, Australia. So if you find yourself near the Pacific Ocean, reach out and let’s connect. I’ll be the girl riding the waves of life!
