I was born in Palm Springs, CA in 1972. I lived in New Mexico for the rest of my childhood and graduated from Hobbs High School in 1990. I attended nursing school at New Mexico Junior College in Hobbs, NM and graduated with my Associate Degree in Nursing in 1994. I moved to Lubbock, TX to start my nursing career. I attended Lubbock Christian University and graduated with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2002. I got married in 2003. I have been working as a Pediatric Private Duty nurse since 2004. I have always had a deep interest in alternative healthcare therapies which is why I became interested in becoming a massage therapist. I started massage school at Oceans Spa and School in 2013 and recently graduated from their 500 hour program. I achieved licensure as a massage therapist at the beginning of this month. My main purpose in massage therapy is to help people with their pain and stress. I would really enjoy working with children.
