exploring the boundaries of my own making

Officially schooled as a graphic designer, like so many people I've switched careers more than once. After a lay-off during the dot-com bust, I transitioned into the health and fitness field, much to my mother's amusement. My "drop and give me 20" days as a personal trainer morphed into the "oooooooom" of a yoga instructor, and eventually evolved to where I am now.

As a personal trainer-turned-coach, I think of myself as part cheerleader and part boot in your backside. By using the principles of yoga, the take-no-prisoners attitude of the gym and my own irreverent personality, I help clients sculpt their lives and awaken to vibrant living.

It's been my honor to work with and teach to a global audience. In addition to private clients, I've taught at numerous private, public and corporate facilities, including Yahoo!, Cisco, Google and AOL.
