Health Coach
Specializes in Yoga, Public Speaking, Writing, Creativity, and Comedy
Born in New Jersey, my journey took me to San Francisco on a whim in 2001 and my life has been transforming ever since. I’ve worked numerous jobs as a waiter and a bartender. I was a flight attendant for a few years (feel free to ask me for some good stories about that) and I started taking yoga as a simple way to relieve stress from work and stay fit. I never thought I would become a teacher, but since 2008, that’s exactly what I have been doing and I love every minute of it! In addition to teaching yoga and taking classes and workshops, I also perform regularly as a stand up comedian and work as a freelance writer. I also love fancy ice cream and bacon. It’s all about balance baby!
Invite in the challenge but keep space for balance. Listen to your body and not your mind! It’s about awareness and acknowledgement but not attachment and judgement! Most importantly....be sure to have some fun with everything you do!
It really depends on my mood- I have super eclectic tastes! Music is an integral part of my classes, personal workout, everyday life; I always have music playing! Some of my favorites to do yoga to: Air, Bonobo, Portishead, Thievery Corporation, Massive Attack and Mazzy Star. However, it’s certainly not uncommon for me to turn up some Aretha Franklin and Al Green or an 80’s music medley. Occasionally some guilty pleasures like Katy Perry and Britney Spears come in to bust me through some hardcore work!
San Francisco has so many wonderful outdoor spots! There is this little mountain area above a dog park in the Duboce Triangle/Corona Heights area that I love to climb up to on sunny days and observe the panoramic view of the city. I also love food and fresh produce and really enjoy The Farmers Market at the historic Ferry Building. Occasionally, when I’m feeling frisky, I hop on one of the ferry boats there to take in the view from the Bay.
I’ve performed Stand Up Comedy for over 10 years.
