I am a licensed massage and bodywork therapist. I am passionate about the benefits of massage, not only for stress relief, but I believe it is often the best treatment choice to relieve pain and restrictions. 

I have my own private massage therapy practice, Goodness Me. I also work at Tanas Hair Designs & Day Spa at Falls River Shopping Center in North Raleigh off Durant Road, where I have been awarded Company Massage Therapist of the Year for 5 years in a row (2015  through 2019) before the pandemic interrupted life. 

I believe that learning and enhancing my massage therapy skills is an important ongoing, lifelong process, and I am excited about specialized training through continuing education. 

In my private life, I enjoy a balance of time alone and time with friends and family. I live with my amazing husband, Tim, who is a retired Nurse. We enjoy our delightful children and four precious grandchildren (each of whom have stolen my heart). Besides massage, I enjoy writing, various creative arts, cooking, gardening, and reading. During the necessary sabbatical of the pandemic, I worked with my daughter, who was undergoing breast cancer treatment, to form Remix, a sort of cottage business, making protective face masks, mask mist aromatherapy, hand rescue bars, and mask charms. Otherwise, Tim and I enjoy traveling abroad together as often as we can, camping, skiing, attending concerts and cultural arts events, and supporting social justice efforts for a better world. I believe in expressing the love of God through kindness and respect.
