More About Me

When I’m not in session, you’ll find me outside — cycling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, or hiking. Being active in nature is a key part of my own balance. In the kitchen, I love homemade snacks: muffins, cookies, energy bites… I’m always trying out simple, nourishing recipes to share with my clients.
