A New England native from Massachusetts, Joey has always been drawn to creativity, learning, and helping others grow. She earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Fine Arts and Education from Clark University and later pursued a Master’s Degree in Education in 2003. Her passion for teaching led her into the corporate world, where she spent years as a Health & Safety Specialist and Ergonomics Team Lead/Educator for an aerospace company in Connecticut.

After relocating to Florida in 2017, Joey faced the profound loss of her spouse—an experience that changed the course of her life. Seeking healing, she found her way to yoga. Her first Restorative Yoga class brought a sense of release and peace that she had been searching for. That single class sparked a deep calling to share the transformative power of yoga with others.

Joey earned her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training certification and soon after completed her 300-hour Advanced Training, continuing to expand her knowledge and connection to mind-body wellness. She holds additional certifications in Reiki, Sound Healing, and specialized yoga practices, allowing her to offer a truly holistic and nurturing experience for her students.

Her teaching style is grounded in compassion and mindfulness, blending movement, energy work, and sound to create classes that promote healing, relaxation, and self-discovery.

When she’s not on the mat, you’ll find Joey working out at the YMCA, spending time with her family and friends, doting on her beloved Bichon, Maya, or capturing life’s beautiful moments through her photography.
