Biography

I come to the Alexander Technique from a career as a corporate facilities manager, which involved working long, stressful hours at the computer. Over time, the back and neck pain I experienced became unbearable and I could no longer feel my fingertips.

Through learning the Alexander Technique I realized what it was that I was doing that caused my pain and how I could function pain-free and with much more ease.This tool has helped me say good-bye to chronic neck and back pain.

I am a certified teacher and member of the American Society for the Alexander Technique (M.AmSAT).
