About Me
Driven by a deep love for movement, nature, and adventure, I collaborate with individuals to cultivate ease within their bodies.

My career highlights are numerous and include working as an osteopath for a world-touring dance troupe, supporting elite triathletes in Japan, assisting Tibetan monks, learning from Mayan healers, and caring for a variety of animals across the globe.
