Kerry Kopasek currently works in the architecture and design industry while utilizing her free time teaching meditation to seriously health challenged clients aboard sailing yachts. Her love for artistic expression, making, and design began at a young age and she has found ways to implement creativity into her daily life. In her early career, she helped design a Buddhist temple in which she started meditating with the guidance of monks in the Gelug tradition. Kerry studied meditation in depth, becoming the Education Program Coordinator and began teaching meditation to children through the temple. Later she continued to offer meditation classes through yoga studios. Blending the healing benefits of meditation, art, and activity has become a passion in which she hopes to spread by teaching her students these concepts and how to grow their own practice within their communities.
