“Stanford engineer and IT consultant turned Board-Certified Health & BeingWELL coach livin and teachin high-level wellness & deep self-love.”
A greens-eating, loud-laughing, dance-performing, recipe-trying, self-loving coach passionate about supporting others in re/discovering their best, healthiest selves and a graduate of Stanford University’s Engineering Program, I am a National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC), group fitness, Zumba and 200-hour RYT yoga licensed instructor, dance performer and choreographer, Laughter Yoga leader, workshop facilitator, presenter, public speaker and self-published author of GET A GGRiPP: The Health and Wellness Movement Rooted in Cultural Traditions, and an upcoming second book, Vegetablarian: A Mouthful.
A proud advocate of women's health, I currently serve as the co-lead of the Research Committee on the Board of Directors of The White Dress Project, a uterine fibroid advocacy organization, and founder of the women's health initiative WeKNOW (Women embracing Knowledge Necessary for Our Wellness) and its conversation series #coochieconversations.
Under my wellness business, EmBODY WELL, I am also the creator of the women's self-love EmBODY LOVE framework and retreat and the co-creator of The Mirror Board: Reflections of YOU concept and PLAYshop.
Although my expertise is in health and wellness, I enjoy talking about topics across a broad range of interests because I can ALWAYS connect them to some element of health and wellbeing. (which I demonstrate most episodes of the podcast No Stupid Questions Show with my cohost and fellow Stanford alum, James A Gray, aka JAG)
