Your health deserves
someone who sees
all of you.

I work at the intersection of clinical nutrition, functional movement, and nervous system science, because sustainable performance is never a single-variable problem.

Most practitioners
see one piece.
You deserve the whole picture.

Training alone cannot override poor recovery. Nutrition alone cannot compensate for chronic stress. Mindset alone cannot fix a nervous system that is overloaded.

Real performance, and real health, requires someone who understands how all of it connects. That is the work I do, whether you are a high performer whose body has stopped responding or a yoga teacher ready to build a genuinely clinical practice.

I am not a yoga teacher who does nutrition. I am a clinician and master educator who teaches yoga. That distinction is the foundation of everything I build.

"I am not a yoga teacher who does nutrition. I am a clinician and master educator who teaches yoga."

The same clinical depth. Two distinct audiences. One clear next step.

Health Coaching

The Stronger System

For high performers who are disciplined and consistent, yet still feel depleted, stalled, or off. This is not about doing more. It is about rebuilding the systems that make effort turn into results.

  • Precision clinical nutrition and metabolic strategy
  • Strength and recovery-aligned training programming
  • Nervous system regulation and HRV-informed coaching
  • 30-day reset, 90-day, and 6-month pathways available
  • Clinical performance upgrade for pain and rehab support

Advanced Clinical Education

For yoga teachers who know their practice runs deeper than cues and sequencing, and want the clinical, anatomical, and nervous system foundation to match. Mentorship, CE, and the APEX 300-hour program.

  • APEX Performance Institute, 300-Hour Advanced YTT
  • Teacher Tune Up, continuing education series
  • 1:1 mentorship for serious practitioners
  • Clinical anatomy, movement science, nervous system
  • Founding cohort begins October 4, 2026

Built at the intersection
of depth and breadth.

I spent twenty years learning that the body does not operate in pieces, and building a practice that reflects that. My work draws from clinical nutrition science, functional movement, exercise physiology, and nervous system regulation, held inside a framework shaped by yoga philosophy and the wisdom of ancient systems.

I did not arrive here by accident. I completed graduate training in applied clinical nutrition. I spent thousands of hours in anatomy, clinical supervision, and advanced movement science. The breadth is intentional, because the people I serve cannot afford someone who only sees one dimension of them.

My clients are high performers whose bodies have stopped responding and yoga teachers who are ready to build the clinical foundation their training never gave them. The work is different. The standard is the same.
