**NOTICE: On temporary extended leave for 2023**

I am a 33 year old, transgender man working in Oakland, CA (he/him/his). I am a graduate of the San Fransisco School of Massage and Bodywork, a 600-hr program approved by the National Certification Board for Therapeutic Massage & Bodywork (NCBTMB) and accredited by the Accrediting Bureau of Health Education Schools (ABHES), and I am certified via the California Massage Therapy Council (CAMTC).

I practice massage to provide a safe space and facilitate healing for all people and all bodies. My primary philosophy is that none of us can truly be at peace until we find comfort and safety within our own, individual bodies. As a therapist I focus on delivering services to those less often offered the opportunity to experience transformation and connection through safe and healing touch - such as transgender and queer folks, people of color, elderly folks, folks with neurodiversities, and folks with marginalized body types.

Prior to developing my career in massage and bodywork, I obtained my B.S. from Iowa State University in 2013 and my Ph.D. from Purdue University in 2018.
