BACKGROUND
Who influenced your career path (who have you enjoyed learning from, mentor, etc.)?
I trained under Sunday Homitz, DPT, at Body Technic Systems, Inc. in a classical/Stott based 900-hour mat certification and a 1,000-hour complete machine certification, which I completed in 2017 and 2019. I also got a specialization in Scoliosis. I have been teaching mat pilates for 6 years and machine pilates for 4 years.
Sunday obviously was a huge influence and remains a mentor and friend in the field. Jacqui Haas also really influenced me and has motivated me to want to help other dancers the way she helped me.
INTERESTS/SPECIALITIES
What kind of clients do you love working with?
I love working with dancers and athletes as well as elderly populations/people with contraindications. Specifically I’ve worked a lot with people who’ve had strokes or have Parkinson’s Disease.
HOBBIES
What do you do with your spare time?
I love to play my ukulele or piano and jam with friends. I love to paint and draw, and I dabble in film photography. I also hike any chance I can get!
