I started formally studying herbs in 2010 while stewarding a small but beautiful plot of land in Beaverton, OR. Within 6 months I had about 30 medicinal plants wildly growing; I did not plant them. They came in abundance when the grass was no longer mowed. What a sight to see! a whole pharmacy in only a half acre. It is with these plants I started crafting simple herbal remedies such as infused oils, tinctures and salves. In 2014 I graduated from the Elderberry School of Botanical Medicine; a training program for local wildcrafting, medicine making and clinical herbalism. I soon started working at Integrate Health and Wellness PDX a Chinese Medicine clinic and Apothecary. It is here my love and passion for massage bloomed. In 2015 I enrolled the 800-hour massage therapy program at East West College of the Healing Arts. With an emphasis on Swedish relaxation, Tuina, Deep Tissue, Craniosacral Level One and with a certification in Pre- and Perinatal Massage. 

​

I am excited to bridge the worlds of massage therapy and herbal medicine by offering custom blended massage oils, tinctures and tonics with individualized massage sessions.

When not working with people and their muscles I am gleefully tending my garden with my son or out in the woods walking amongst the trees, plants and admiring the flowers.
