ABOUT ME

I love getting to know new places--it's sort of like making friends, and now I feel like I have friends all over the world. In the last five years, I've lived in 4 cities.

I love yoga, and I'm looking to incorporate my yoga into my travels. I love practicing with people, and the energy it produces.

I'm an educator. Twenty tiny humans depend on me, every day, to wake up and teach them. Sometimes I think I need this weight--this awe-inspiring responsibility--to keep me from floating away.

I'm a vegan, and I'm passionate about changing our relationship to the food we eat. I'm also a great cook. I love playing with combinations of vegetables and spices, traveling the world in my kitchen. I love cooking for myself or for a crowd. I think it's important to spend time preparing and caring about the food that we put in our bodies.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to feel that I am using my time in the best way that I can to help others, to connect to other people, and to develop myself in the fullest way possible. I want to know that I have used my time well, living each day for what it brings. I am driven to engage with each conversation and challenge that life presents. I am driven to conquer fears and tackle new challenges. I am driven to never be bored. I am often driven by fear, of not doing enough, or learning enough, or loving enough, and in the end I am grounded by the fact that there is no such thing as “enough,” and that the best thing to do is to fully embrace every experience for what I can learn and for what it contributes to the person I am becoming. I am driven by how little I know—my ignorance propels me, pushes me to dig deeper and ask harder questions.

I strive for balance, for an inner peace that I find in yoga, through religious exploration, and spirituality.
