I am equally fascinated by bootstrapping a meaningful business, essential natural living, and the way that both go hand in hand to support each other. Technically, I am a certified herbalist and yoga instructor with a background in Urban Design.

But, the truth is that my expertise and passion I wake up with daily is in reminding others of the daily efficacy of simple, accessible practices + rituals that make you feel good and do quite literally everything with more awareness. 

I believe in building confidence in others through sustainable nutrition, intuitive movement, and healthy thinking.

It's all really, really important and I hope LAKA serves as an inspiration to others to take agency over their natural intelligence, potent intuition, and care a lot less about what anyone else thinks.

You'll likely see Laka evolve a lot, as I am always striving for some sort of continuum effect. We're all a continuum. LAKA is a destination that honors everything that is changing in science, society, and global health. 

Wisdom begins outside your comfort zone.  I’ve created, innovated + invigorated brands and the teams behind them for over 15 years. Holy shitake.

I got certified in areas that transformed me along the way: yoga, plant medicine, wellness counseling, neuroscience, [motherhood LOL]. The sum of each failure, lesson + triumph – I’m so grateful.

My first slogan was ‘Simplify. Amplify.’  A meaningful practice that works. Now more than ever is a time to embody LESS being MEGA.

Consumption of pure foods. Movement as medicine. Nature as energy. Freedom to be still. Presence over pressure. Real conversations.

I’ll never forget my first call with Liz, an instant understanding of our journey to get to this moment as female entrepreneurs - separate paths with the same serendipitous vision.

A passion to nourish, to move, to slow down, to energize from within.
