About Me

My work weaves somatic coaching and transformative breathwork, with a storytelling sentiment and worldview. The creative process is my guiding thread through life, and the force that informs my role as a facilitator, coach and guide.

My personal and professional journey has been diverse: I was a Fulbright Fellow in Mongolia documenting the underground queer community, a journalist in Cambodia, completed a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing at Columbia University, was a writer and producer in New York and DC for National Geographic, Discovery and Smithsonian, studied mythology and pastoral care at the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, and worked as a storyteller and creative producer in nonprofit and tech in San Francisco.

The core trainings that guide my work are: Advanced Breathwork with David Elliott; Breathwork Master with The Breath Space; Timeless Wisdom Training and Collective Trauma Facilitator Training with teacher and author, Thomas Hübl, which both focus on individual, ancestral and collective trauma healing and integration. I am currently in the Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP) training, founded by Dr. Peter Levine, which is a nervous system and body-based therapeutic modality with an emphasis on capacity-building. In addition to my formal trainings, I’ve immersed myself in more esoteric modalities which I incorporate into my practice, including Internal Family Systems, Wisdom Traditions, Men’s Work, the 12-Steps and Shamanic-informed healing.
