Consistent with my lifelong passions for both science and spirituality, today I am both a mindfulness meditation teacher/EI trainer, and a software quality professional, working in medical AI. While I am very interested in beneficial and humane technology development, this site currently focuses on my work and interests in the mindfulness domain.

I have studied and practiced Buddhist meditation for 12 years, and have completed two mindfulness-related teacher training certifications.  One is focused on a secular, organizational mindfulness and emotional intelligence training called Search Inside Yourself, which was originally developed for employees at Google.

I have also completed the MMTCP teacher training program created and led by Jack Kornfield and Tara Brach, in association with U.C. Berkeley's Greater Good Science Center. 

Gratitude for their many benefits inspire me to share foundational mindfulness and compassion practices with others, so that they may experience their benefits as well.
