About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a performance optimization coach for professional musicians, massage therapist, and yoga teacher. I live a life full of love for the world and the unique culture of music each country shares. I've lived many places and have much to share in music, healing work, cooking, and humor. Check out this link to hear some of my music:

PHILOSOPHY

Live simply, accept what comes, be strong, be grateful, be playful, eat well, sleep well, do no harm, make the most of the present moment, and every one I meet is my teacher.
