In my early 20s, a serious car accident set off a three-year legal process, permanent nerve damage, and a reckoning with what it means to actually heal. Yin yoga helped my body. Vinyasa quieted my mind — the first time in months that the anxiety had quieted enough for me to hear my own thoughts. I was so blown away by that experience that I became a teacher in the following years.

That was part of a lifelong pattern: find something that helps, master it obsessively, figure out how to share it.

I've since trained in sound healing, mindfulness, breathwork, accessible yoga, and a range of other modalities — not because I loved collecting certifications, but because healing kept being necessary. The car accident was one chapter of many. What I've learned across all of them is that mindfulness is the mechanism underneath every practice that actually works. And most people never get formally introduced to it.

That's the gap I'm here to close.

I'm someone who’s worked in corporate boardrooms, small family businesses, yoga studios, and been a part of countless communities thanks to a lifetime of revolving obsessions. I’m also someone who has spent the last decade studying mindfulness, healing modalities, and complex trauma.

This means I can translate these topics for pretty much any room I enter – live or virtual. Whether you're a skeptic, a seeker, or someone who's exhausted and just needs something to actually work, there's an accessible entry point here.

Write & Well is where I share what I've found.
