Whether I am wearing the hat of a doctor or the hat of a yoga instructor I am always a teacher. Teaching is my passion but in order to teach I must first and foremost always be a student. If you stop learning you no longer have anything to teach. So I offer this page only as a quick view of my academic studies with the knowledge that most real learning comes to us in much less formal ways each and every day.
So, for those of you who are interested in the nuts-and-bolts of it all here is the quick resume of education, degrees and certificates.
