About our Speaker
With more than 30 years of personal experience in "light & sound" meditation, Tai Chi, qigong, and Sheng Zhen Meditation, combined with 14 years of teaching, I am dedicated to guiding you along this meditative path. As you nurture inner peace and develop a clearer prosperity mindset, your leadership style and creativity will naturally harmonize with your unique approach to life.
My dedication to the practice of wholeness stems from my background as an architect, where I obtained a bachelor's degree in Environmental Design from TAMU and a Master of Architecture from the University of Houston. My personal challenges with mental and physical health led me to investigate the profound connection between the subconscious mind and emotional wellbeing, deepening my understanding of whole-health beyond mental health.
Today, I am committed to supporting a new generation of emerging and revitalized leaders who aspire to embrace a culture of whole-health for themselves, their families, and their teams.
Since my return to TAMU in 2017, I have joined the faculty in the Kinesiology and Sport Management department as an adjunct instructor, teaching courses such as Meditation for Stress & Anxiety and Meditation for Leaders. In addition, R.E.S.T. will be launching at the TAMU College of Medicine to third year medical students at the Willow Brook Campus in connection to the Methodist Hospital.
My passion for promoting whole-health has garnered grant funding for initiatives like TAMU Urban Farm United (TUFU), an aeroponic project aimed at supplying fresh produce to the campus food pantry, known as the 12th Can. Aggies Meditate, another grant-funded initiative focused on social sustainability, provides meditation classes for the campus community, including students, faculty, and staff. The success of Aggies Meditate has paved the way for additional funding to develop a training program for dedicated meditation students, enabling them to promote Meditation In Motion As Medicine across campus through student organizations.
