Bio

I am a therapeutic specialist yoga teacher and pharmacist based in Chicago, IL. I am a breast cancer survivor and an inventor. I found yoga while I was undergoing chemotherapy. Yoga made me feel so much better, I want to bring that feeling to others which led me to become a yoga teacher. While undergoing radiation treatments, I created a proprietary formula to help relieve the skin burning discomfort of radiation therapy.

​

My mission is to meet a student’s needs to gain a better understanding of their health and wellbeing through yoga.

By intertwining my pharmacy knowledge of western medicine and my therapeutic specialist yoga training I help students create body awareness that improves their healthcare journey and overall wellbeing. I utilize a traditional yoga practice that integrates anatomy and alignment with biomechanics. My customized approach helps students create body awareness and an internal state of balance. If you are recovering from an injury or surgery (ie; shoulder, hip, or back) I am happy to work with any physical therapy guidelines to compliment your practice. If you are undergoing treatment for a health condition such as chemotherapy I will align your practice to best support your current treatment and therapies.  If you need a restorative practice to help you with sleep, stress or mental health, I will guide you through yoga sessions that focus on you.

 

I earned my B.S. in Pharmacy from the University of Colorado, RYT200 under Wendy Dahl at Blue Sun Yoga and RYT500 through Tiffany Cruikshank at Yoga Medicine.
