I began my yoga journey at age 18, hoping to find a practice that would tap the power that I knew was inside me, with minimal results. Although I gained worldly success and material excess over the years, I was empty and demoralized on the inside and physically frozen on the outside. For 25 years, a great deal of introspection and spiritual work remained barren, blocked by a combination of trauma, repression, and addiction.

At the age of 43, “the gift of desperation” led to a complete surrender resulting in a psychic change that radically reoriented and revolutionized every aspect of my life and set me on a path of being healed and helping heal others. 

As the result of this radical life-reorientation, I committed myself to living a life and building a career in alignment with my core values and deepest principles.  This necessitated starting over from ground zero, rather late in life, and aiming toward a career of teaching Yoga and mentoring other seekers to awaken to their authentic identity and find their true place in life.

At the time of my psychic change in 2000, I began the volunteer process of coaching hundreds of individuals who also were seeking to break out of negative mindsets, bad habits, and limiting perceptions to live their best life.  This blossomed in 2008, when I graduated from Coaching Training Institute and made a career of my greatest passion, working with others in the great adventure of transformational conversation, the type of mind and soul introspection that brings the greatest gift of life, remembering who you really are.

In 2010, the dream of establishing a healing center came to fruition with the establishment of my Yoga studio, The Yoga Fusion, in 2010.  The Yoga Fusion Studio flourished for 10 years as a haven of mental, emotional, and physical healing and evolution for thousands of seekers before the pandemic in 2020. 

When I began my life reorientation in 2000, the notion that I could ever manifest a sanctuary of healing and well-being as a successful and thriving business was only a faint spark, seemingly beyond any realm of possibility.  However, great faith and intentional action delivered a reality beyond my wildest dreams.  The exercise of great faith coupled with relentless footwork are the keys I’ve learned to making dreams come true and are the basis of the coaching and mentoring work I’ve engaged with thousands of others over the past 20+ years.

My purpose in life is to carry these healing principles and activities to others who seek to evolve and find  their true place in life.
