She holds certifications in 300-hour and 500-hour Hatha and Transformative Yoga and a master’s in yoga and nutrition.

During her time in Goa, she also met her life partner—the founder of Nalanda Retreat—and together they continue to nurture a space where tradition, transformation, and heartfelt connection meet.
