If you’ve tried massage, physical therapy, or chiropractic care and still struggle with chronic pain, you’re not alone.
I’ve been there too.
My own experience with pain led me to discover alignment and movement—and it changed everything.
Now, I help others find that same relief, clarity, and confidence in their bodies.
Early in my career in San Francisco, I dealt with chronic back and shoulder pain. I tried everything—but nothing created lasting change.

It worked. I finally found relief—and I knew I wanted to help others do the same.
In 2004, I became a certified Postural Alignment Therapist through the Egoscue Institute. That foundation still informs my work today—but my approach has evolved far beyond it.
Over the years, I’ve worked with athletes, active adults, teens, and individuals recovering from injury or chronic pain.
Every program is tailored to the person in front of me— because no two bodies are the same.
