I am the first National Medical Board Certified Health and Wellness coach in Georgetown, Texas. I also have a certification in Pain Management Coaching. I have been practicing iRest and other forms of meditation for the past 15 years. I was drawn to iRest because I was suffering from a life-changing health condition that led to chronic pain and anxiety. I was amazed at the healing and restorative power of iRest yoga meditation. The various practices I learned led to a full healing of my anxiety and have given me a very high quality of life in the midst of ongoing health challenges.

In 2011 I received my Level I iRest training with Dr. Richard Miller at Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health. Since that time, I have taught numerous classes to people in colleges, assisted living facilities and corporate health & wellness programs. Last year I decided to complete an advanced iRest training, which has prepared me to support people with one:one iRest dyad practices in addition to leading group classes.

I am a happy member of a family with two wonderful kids and a partner who is my best friend. I work as a health and wellness coach, with a special calling to support people with chronic and complicated pain and also as an educator/mentor for college faculty looking for ways to make their teaching more meaningful, motivating and heart-centered.
