Personal Trainer
Fitness Instructor

“I feel that years of training and a “large tool-box” have given me a keen eye to see postural deviation patterns and teach alignment with exercise.  I can’t help but share training tips in the group classes that I love to teach.”

She has performed at the Telluride Jazz Festival and toured in New Mexico on a grant from the National Endowment of the Arts.
