About

First of all, thank you for taking the time to learn more about me.  It is truly a pleasure to meet you. 

I am the founder and chief inspiration officer of Living Vibrantly By Design.  Above all else, I am an adventurer, seeker of knowledge, and lover of life.  My continual desire to learn helps me evolve and adapt to this ever-changing world that we live in. 

As an educator for 35+ years, I have discovered that there is no ‘one size fits all’ approach to guiding clients and students towards optimal well-being.  It is a privilege to guide others towards their own inner healing, for our external world often becomes a reflection of our internal world.  Using a variety of healing modalities and practices creates a platform that is personalized and allows for more adaptability.  I have sought out ways to discover the root cause for the roadblocks that appear in my own life, barriers to my own health, wellness, and ultimately, my happiness.  The true gift is sharing these tools with others to help them live their lives Vibrantly by Design.

“We are meant to do more than simply exist,

we are designed to truly live our lives completely and whole-heartedly.”

– Wendy Hassenpflug

While I enjoyed teaching, I knew deep in my heart that I was meant to do something bigger and more impactful.  In the interim of earning my Master’s degree, I started the health and wellness chapter of my life, earning certifications in personal training, holistic nutrition, Pilates and yoga.  After earning my Master of Science in Kinesiology with emphasis in dance, I created and trademarked Vayu Yoga®, an aerial yoga practice.  The more I worked with clients and students, the more I began to see that there was no ‘one size fits all’ approach to guiding them towards optimal well-being.

During this process, I also discovered that I having a variety of healing modalities and practices was beneficial and allowed more adaptability.  I have sought out ways to discover the root cause for the roadblocks that appear in my own life, barriers to my own health, wellness, and ultimately, my happiness.  As I have shared my own experiences with others, many have sought out their own healing modalities.  It is a privilege to guide my clients and students towards their own inner healing, for our external world often becomes a reflection of our internal world.

When we can use the art of subtle body practices with the science of movement practices, we can choose our path, by not feeling we have to settle for less than what we deserve.  I use a variety of modalities to guide my clients through discovery, breakthroughs, and alchemy, helping them to live their lives Vibrantly by their Own Design.
