My Background
My path to mindfulness began in Duluth at the University of Minnesota. Finding healthier ways to peace, while completing a BA in Communication and Art. Movement and nature were key tools & teachers. I feel so fortunate to have discovered how yoga and meditation connect us, challenge us and help us grow.
