I was first licensed as a Physical Therapist Assistant in 2005, and have been working as a PTA in the area since then. Most of that time has been spent working alongside a fantastic team at Schmidt Physical Therapy. I have always enjoyed manual therapies and helping people heal using my hands.

I decided I needed to expand my professional knowledge of manual and energetic therapies. I was licensed as a Massage Therapist in 2012. Since then my knowledge of manual therapies and how to manipulate tissues has grown exponentially. I later took classes in Reiki and became certified as a Level 1 practitioner in 2017. Most recently I have continued my Reiki journey and became certified as a Reiki master in September 2020.

In 2019 I was Board Certified as a Tai Chi Exercise Instructor. Specifically trained in the Tai Chi for Rehabilitation form work. This use of exercise for health along with energy work and bodywork has helped me to provide full body wellness to my clients.

This year, in 2021, I have explored meditation fundamentals both for myself and my clients.  I began this journey with a Certificate in Meditation Teacher Training in my first class 100 hour level Meditation Foundation Studies through Yogamu.  This has allowed me to become certified as a Meditation Teacher through Meditation Alliance International.
