My Profile

I began my Laughter Yoga journey with my mom who had dementia. The ability to bring joy while dealing with the uncertainty of her memory was such a pleasure. From there, I attended a few classes during the pandemic where we all needed the social interaction and fun. I had heard of it, but didn't understand the value of the experience until I participated with it.

I got certified this year after some major losses in 2022. I truly believe that joy enhances our world. I spent most of my career in the technology world with a parallel thread in the area of philanthropy, working with several charities over 25 years (includng being part of 9/11 relief efforts). Another daily practice I am pleased to have years of experience with is Gratitude. I am part of the Leadership for a movement dedicated to sharing gratitude as it is scientifically proven to alter our brains for the better.

Laughter Yoga brings such amazing health benefits. I look forward to bringing it to corporate environments as stress relief and a practice that builds connection among employees, as well to the senior population. I guarantee you and your group won't feel the same after a session.

"Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.”

—Mother Teresa
