Thanks to my nanny (my maternal grandmother) and her love of massage, I discovered that I had a natural talent as a healer at a very young age. However, no matter how many times she tried to convince me to attend massage school over the years, it never seemed like the right time due to my various life situations. After many years of oscillating between working in a corporate setting and being a stay-at-home mom to my three beautiful children, I was honored to be asked by a long time friend if I might consider going to school and helping in her private massage practice once I'd earned my license. Finally the timing was right, so I agreed. It's while working in that practice, through my friend's shared teachings, attending many continuing education classes, constant independent research, and the actual hands-on client experience that I was able to hone my skills and gain the confidence I needed to finally pursue my dream of working for myself. I am eternally grateful to my friend for allowing me the space to experience what I had been missing before then. With these experiences and my years of herbal studies now in my therapeutic toolbox, I was finally ready to follow my true passion of providing healing therapies to others through herbalism but now from a massage therapist's approach.
I have since learned how to blend the two therapies I love into something I call my Signature Herbal Oil Therapy. With this, I am now able to provide healing in a new way, as an expression of my herbalist and massage therapist journeys combined and help others to receive the amazing benefits.

And as I continue to grow my therapeutic toolbox through my continued herbalism, massage and wellness studies, I am looking forward to being able to offer even more benefits to my current and future clients in the near future and beyond.

My goal as an herbal wellness therapist is to use my knowledge and abilities to help my clients be able to live more comfortably in their bodies every day.
