about me–

hi there, sunshine!

I’m Alex and I’m so glad you’re here! I live in sunny Tampa, FL with my collie pup, Bandit. I love nothing more than being near the water (whether on a boat or at the beach) and I absolutely HAVE to say hi to every dog I see. I’m a textbook Capricorn so I’m a logical thinker but a big-time daydreamer, and organization is truly the way to my heart. I grew up as a competitive figure skater which was the catalyst for my love of movement and sports. This eventually lead me to yoga and holistic health!

I always knew there was more.

I was tired of feeling unfulfilled with the life I worked so hard for, so I went on a wellness journey to figure out why.

About a month into my first “big girl job,” I knew I was in trouble. Office life was not (and is still not) for me. The corporate marketing career I thought I wanted was totally draining me, while simultaneously ruining my fitness schedule, my eating habits, and my happiness. I knew there was something missing, I could FEEL it in my bones. I just couldn’t quite figure out what “it” was.

After career changes, soul searching, and a lot of learning, I became a yoga teacher in 2020 and a certified holistic health and alignment coach in 2021. I created Namaste By The Bay as a way to help people on their own personal journey to find their “why” in life.

Namaste By The Bay is a space for me to share my knowledge of yoga and holistic health with my passion for coaching, empowering and inspiring others. My goal is to help you to create a mindful lifestyle with healthy habits, find balance and live the life you daydream about. We only get one life, so there’s no time to feel anything less than our best, right??
