One minute I was running with my dog in a park, the next I was in ER …

I have Type-1 Diabetes, and Neuropathy sent my foot infection raging out of control. After three surgeries and one month in the hospital, I’ve healed. 

My movement, mindset, and spiritual practices were crucial to my recovery. I’ve practiced therapeutic/healing modalities for thousands of hours alongside master teachers like Rodney Yee and Colleen Saidman Yee. I blend yoga therapy, breathwork, meditation, holistic nutrition, essential oils, reiki, and contemplative care to treat people with chronic conditions like cancer, anxiety, and depression. 

As a Master Trainer in the Urban Zen Integrative Therapy program, I helped launch Donna Karan’s wellness and social impact program in Haiti and have taught physicians, nurses, and patients at Weill Cornell Medicine and Columbia Medical Center in New York City.
