About Me
I have been a licensed massage therapist since 2005. I have specialized in Abdominal Therapy (a form of massage therapy) for a decade, and perinatal massage for my whole career. Massage is my second career, but it's where I'm meant to be. Recently, I added manual lymphatic drainage and health coaching to my resume, as well as getting my Master's in Education (concentration in Adult Education). These additions allow me to serve my clients in additional ways as well as allow me to better teach continuing education to other massage therapists.
