Hi!

Originally from sunny Southern California, Wendy moved to New York City in 2004. Within a year or so of moving to the big apple her weight shot up to over 300 pounds and she suffered chronic headaches. Many tests and doctors later a small tumor in her head was found. While the tumor is benign it did a lot of damage to her endocrine system. 

She was unhappy and felt awful physically.

"I woke up one morning and popped in a DVD and did a yoga practice.  That one morning led to me doing yoga every single morning.  I lost 140+ pounds in my living room. My tumor shrank to half the size it had been, and I saw how truly powerful we can be when we show up for ourselves. It changed my whole life and put me on a path to helping others." 

In addition to working with thousands on their health and fitness she also worked full time in an IT  corporate setting at a travel agency in midtown NYC for many years. With a passion for computers, technology, social media, and professional podcast editing - her own business and brand was launched. In 2017 she left the corporate job and moved into her own business full time. 

She is a RYT200 hr yoga teacher, Spin class instructor,
Zumba instructor, mediator, and life coach.  She has created online courses, hosted health workshops, been a guest speaker for trainings, and launched the lifestyle podcast, The Spark Effect.

​She is also an author and poet. Her first book, The Thrash, was published in 2020. 


She lives in CT with her boyfriend, is a proud stepmom to Sophie and Danny, has a corgi named Zeppelin, and a rescue pocket lab named Kashmir.
