My fascination with spiritual practice was seeded during early childhood visits with my family to Buddhist temples in Korea, where I observed the elders engaging with their practices.  My love of movement began with dance lessons at age 4, and and my first encounter with yoga was in 1992 as a student of art history at Barnard College in New York City.  After completing an MSc at The London School of Economics and Political Science, I moved to Hong Kong to put these degrees to use in the corporate world.  Life took an unexpected turn, however, when I discovered Ashtanga Yoga in 2000.  I felt called to a deeper learning of yoga, and committed to a daily practice.  In 2006, I started making trips to Mysore, India, to study with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, R. Sharath Jois and R. Saraswathi Jois before returning home and having one baby in 2008 and then another four years later.  These babies are both the backbone and fruits of my mindfulness practices. In 2003, I began teaching yoga to adults, and in 2013 I became an elementary school teacher of yoga and special education.  In 2024, I completed an MA in Counseling Psychology and am a BBS Registered Associate Marriage and Family Therapist offering mental health counseling to individuals, couples, and groups including children and adolescents.  I am honored to have received teaching Authorization from KPJAYI/SYC, and am honored to share this beautiful and transformative practice with students all over the world.  I believe that yoga and therapy are body mind practices that should be offered as an integrated healing modalities in a completely accepting space in which seekers feel safe and free to have their unique and ever-evolving needs addressed on a moment-to-moment basis.  I am in gratitude my teachers, mentors, fellow students and seekers whom I have been enriched by on this path.
