About
In 2016, I earned my 200 hr YTT certificate and 10 years later, in 2026 I have begun my 300 hr YTT, simply to dive deeper for myself and to be able to offer more to my students. I owned a holistic & sustainable inn & hostel in Vermont, at which we offered classes to lodging guests and the local community. I hired, managed and scheduled for multiple practitioners in our wellness studio as well as taught my own vinyasa classes.
My intention: To be a part of the wellness community in Asheville by helping care for and maintain an organized, efficient and successful studio at Cultivate.
