I’m a doctor of physical therapy, yoga guide, health stylist, and writer. I combine my specialized services to educate and offer my knowledge and experience. Health to me is healing. It’s the core of the word. And healing is a continual journey, to live your best life. I offer a fresh approach to defining what health means to you to navigate your wellness path here at Awareness Academy.
One of my favorite poets and quotes by Ralph Waldo Emerson is “The first wealth is health.”
I 100% agree! Did you know the global wellness market is now valued at 4.75 TRILLION? Seriously, we are all a part of this planetary health movement! It is our wealth! That’s where my heart is and I also love writing health related articles, publications and spotlight interviews with acclaimed professional athletes and inspirational humans. I assist the sports medical team at World Surf League contests as well as other action sports events. I’m also an instructor at MiraCosta College in the kinesiology department for various courses as well as for the 200- hour and 300- Hour Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga Teacher Training programs. I've been an online teacher for over 10 years! My Education:

Masters of Physical Therapy: California State University, Long Beach, CA.,
Bachelor of Arts, Biology: Bucknell University, Lewisburg, PA.,
