ABOUT ME
Thank you for being here. I look forward to sharing a mindfulness practice with you.
I am a certified Meditation and Mindfulness Instructor and a Mindful Schools Mindfulness Foundations graduate, bringing nearly two decades of experience in a variety of meditation practices. I've also earned certificates from Cornell’s Civic Ecology Lab and hold a BA from Dartmouth College and an MPA from New York University.
Personally, meditation has been a lifeboat that has allowed me to better weather life’s turbulent seasons, while also giving me a seat in which to appreciate the drifting clouds, the sun on my skin, and my children laughing.
As I’ve grown calmer, and stopped flailing around quite so much at the bottom of the lifeboat, I’ve been able to look around me a bit more and see our interconnected struggles and joys. I am committed to continuing to deepen my mindfulness practice, to working on myself and being intentional in my actions, with a particular commitment to working on social justice.
In addition to meditating, studying Buddhism, and worrying about climate change, I am lucky to have a loving and supportive husband, two amazing and growing daughters, and a very doggy dog. I grew up in the Midwest (Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan). I fill my bucket by running outdoors, especially on local trails, playing tennis with friends, reading (from the trashy to the deep), and trying to maintain a garden, although the weeds usually get the better of me.
