For me, life began to make more sense the more I traveled the world. I’m drawn to the contrast in life that is displayed in how people live. Growing up bilingual in English and Spanish and having a nurturing heart for working with the youth, guided me in beginning a career as a Spanish high school teacher. Taking students overseas to places like Peru and Costa Rica, to work on service learning projects, further developed my enthusiasm for life in all corners of the world. 

I lived the majority of my adult life in Colorado. There I completed my Master’s degree at the University of Colorado in Boulder. If I’m not away, enamored by global travel escapades, I fill my spirit with outdoor adventure. Currently I’m keen on time spent in the ocean by Southern California, where I currently live. I take great pleasure in being in nature. As long as I can remember, I’ve enjoyed looking up at the sky, thinking, dreaming about the infinite possibilities that surround us. Nature is always on display changing, adapting and supporting our evolutionary growth.

Presently, I am a full-time, independent teacher of Vedic Meditation. I learned this meditation technique in 2017. For the last several years I have completed advanced knowledge courses and have acquired various advanced techniques from my teacher Thom Knoles (Maharishi Vyasanand Saraswati), who additionally trained me to be a teacher. His rigorous training program was held in an ashram in northern India at the footsteps of the Himalayas. For 3 months, myself and 22 others, from 6 different countries, were trained there and recognized by the ancient Shankaracharya Saraswati tradition. My love for teaching this simple yet sophisticated mental technique stems from the baseline of happiness it provides. My direct experience with Vedic Meditation has transformed my life remarkably and teaching this to those who are interested would be an honor.
