What excites you the most about your job?
As Pres­i­dent of Pow­er Liv­ing Enter­pris­es, it excites me that we are improv­ing peo­ple’s lives through our mind-body train­ing, coach­ing and con­sult­ing ser­vices, as well as the con­tent we create.

Please tell us about your inter­est in applied brain sci­ence. What areas are you most inter­ested in? What moti­vated you to pur­sue work in your field? 
The brain has always been fas­ci­nat­ing to me. I’m approach­ing it from the mind-body train­ing and con­tent stand­point. I have an MBA from Har­vard and also found­ed the first yoga stu­dio in Harlem 12 years ago. I blend the two now by train­ing exec­u­tives in mind­ful­ness, lead­er­ship and well­ness.
