I believe the way we breathe shapes the way we live. For over two decades, I've been teaching people—from elite athletes to everyday professionals—how to unlock the power of their breath to build mental steadiness, physical energy, and lasting resilience.

MY STORY

From Competition to Transformation

As a former Division I collegiate golfer, I know firsthand the pressures of competition and the toll stress can take on the mind.

My own search for tools to steady the body and mind led me to yoga, meditation, and eventually the science of breath. What started as personal exploration became a mission: helping athletes, coaches, and teams train the one system that fuels every other—breath.

BEYOND BREATH

Life Outside the Training Room

I live in Fort Collins, Colorado, with my husband and our Australian Shepherd, Brody.

When I'm not teaching, you'll find me outside on the trails or back on the golf course—still chasing my personal best. I also volunteer with Special Olympics, where I get to share the gift of breath and movement with athletes of all abilities.
