As a mixed-methods researcher specializing in qualitative research, I draw from yoga philosophy principles to inform my research approach. With an industry background in medical devices, health technology, accessibility, inclusivity, and emotional well-being, my participants are frequently part of vulnerable populations. I hold a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Information Science from Cornell University, as well as my RYT200 Yoga Teaching certification from Yoga Alliance. Thus, I balance academic and industry rigor with mindfulness, acceptance, and attunement to promote inclusivity and well-being.
