Her desire of teaching yoga to curious minds, combined with her aspiration for stronger educational practices on diversity, equity, inclusion, and access, empowers her to use yogic, mindfulness, and social justice practices in the yoga classroom. She received her 200-hour yoga certification in 2023 through CVY and has been practicing yoga on and off throughout her life. She hopes to continue focusing on progressive inclusion for all and exploring a diversity of ideas in both her school and yoga communities.
