I am a multisport athlete and coach, passionate about learning new ways to move and deepening my understanding of the human body. I earned a PhD in Kinesiology, the study of human movement, from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I am also a mom and a certified Pregnancy and Postpartum Athleticism Coach. 

I have studied movement disciplines from ballet and yoga to Brazilian jiu jitsu and Olympic weightlifting, and found ways to connect my experiences and become more conscious of the way I move my body. I discovered that applying body awareness techniques and visualization cues helped me learn with ease, reduce pain and injuries, and become more efficient in my movement practice.

I founded Harmonic Motion while experiencing the transition to motherhood, navigating the shift in my identity and the changes in my postpartum body. As a lifelong athlete, I had a hard time embracing this beautiful transformation during this period of my life. Once I began to trust my body and the process, I found ways to regain equilibrium. I want to share my discoveries with you.
