For two decades, I've been exploring what it means to live fully: through the body, the breath, and the humbling work of being human.

My path began in the classroom, studying Sports Medicine, Human Physiology, and Sports Psychology, then pulled me west to the mountains, where my education became embodied on long rides, in thin alpine air, and through a professional racing career. I founded Vail Valley RIDE, a mountain bike camp that teaches kids the bike is a tool for confidence, community, and holistic health, and built a career in marketing and PR for leading outdoor brands.

Throughout my racing career, I felt a deeper pull: to understand why we strive, how we grow, and what it means to feel whole. That curiosity led me into the study of energy and holistic psychology, guided by mentor Dr. Erica Matluck of Experience Seven Senses and certification through author and therapist Anodea Judith, PhD. Today I'm a Certified Kriya Teacher (via Kia Miller), a Yoga Nidra and Sound Practitioner (via Yandara Yoga Institute), and a Certified Transitions Intelligence (TQ) Coach (via Modern Elder Academy).

Through KJ Alignment, I help individuals, brands, and athletes reconnect through movement, mindfulness, and intentional alignment. My philosophy is simple: performance isn't just physical. It's mental, emotional, and spiritual. Whether I'm guiding a breath session, coaching through a life transition, or helping a product launch, my goal is the same: clarity, ease, and alignment with your efforts.

When I'm not coaching, you'll find me running Vail Valley RIDE camps or chasing freedom on two wheels, always close to nature and forever an endurance junkie.
