I am honored to be working alongside such talented teachers at VGM this year! I will be returning for my second year as the school’s Yoga instructor and as a classroom support teacher on Mondays and Fridays. 

My husband Bill and I have lived in Vernon Hills since 2019 with our three children—Addi (16), Aubrey (14), and William (5)—and our Aussie Doodle dog named Ginger. When we aren’t at our kids’ sporting events, you will typically find us at our own fitness endeavors such as running or cycling. 

My background is in the field of radiology where I worked for over thirteen years in multiple modalities within the hospital patient care setting. When my son, William, was born in 2020, I decided to take some time off to focus on my family.

Since then, I have had the opportunity to pursue my love of yoga and fitness. I am passionate about the power of movement with mind, body, and breath as a means to inspire creativity, heal, and connect— especially with young children. 

With my deep commitment to health, movement, and childhood education, my hope is to bring joyful energy, creativity and mindfulness into the classroom!
