I was born in albuquerque, nm. I grew up in the southwest with a deep appreciation, and respect, for the earth and its people. I grew up skiing in taos ski valley and the sangre de cristo mountains. Growing up I longed to live on the beach and set my sights on california at a very young age.

I moved to north lake tahoe in august 1993. I currently split my time between truckee and san francisco, ca. I’m excited to spend more time with my family and friends in taos, nm and pescadero bcs mexico. I’ve never really felt that one place felt like home. In all of my travels, I have found the places I love and occupy those spaces with the people and communities I love.

While the physical practice (yoga asana) provides many benefits, I have found the internal connections to be pivotal. As a student of the practice, I never thought I would teach yoga, but I found that holding space for others is a powerful expression of my devotion to the whole.

Whatever it takes. Whatever moves me. I was born into a family of builders. I love creating and building; homes, businesses, projects, and communities. I’m currently working on three very exciting projects in the blockchain space related to fitness, health and wellness. I also founded alpenflow yoga studio in truckee, ca and co-founded the castro room in san francisco, ca.

Digital currencies, often referred to as crypto, are one component of blockchain technology. Crypto is often used to speculate through DeFi (decentralized finance). I am not interested in speculation. I’m deeply focused on blockchain technologies, fascinated with tokenized economies and social behaviors within web3 communities.
