Dawn is devoted to learning and healing and supporting others who wish to do the same. Yoga transformed her life in 2000 and she’s a forever-student on the yogic path. As a research scientist + certified yoga therapist + Type 1 diabetes thriver, she sees her work and life with Type 1 diabetes as a powerful lens for understanding how what we think, eat, and move affects all aspects of our bodies and lives.

When asked to identify her “special sauce,” she said, “I bridge science and ancient wisdom traditions in every breath. I’d die without insulin and modern medicine and build my own capacity to heal my thoughts, emotions, and energy using yoga and aromatherapy.”
