An early exploration of art in my twenties led me into the investment art world and a personal quest to learn figurative sculpture, which led to anatomy. My awe of the human body grew into a traveling massage practice, and I discovered that the healing arts fill my spiritual well while providing a tangible creative expression much like dance does. But my art muse had other ideas and I left body work to enjoy the professional fine art world as an artist.

After following that long and winding road for many years, I still felt drawn to the healing arts. I got back on track and received an associate’s certification (A.C.C.) in positive psychology wellness in 2017, from Coach.Edu in Portland, OR. But it wasn’t until I got a grant to study mosaics in Ashland that I noticed an unexpected familiarity, like being in England, where I was born and raised. It was time to follow my heart and I circled back to bodywork to begin a whole new chapter in OR in 2021. I put roots down in Eugene, switched to being a plant-based foodie (currently a member of Eugene Plant-Based Providers), and completing my Oregon Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT) licensure at both LCC and IBS therapeutic massage schools. I began working in chiropractic clinical settings. Healing feels natural to me.

By blending therapeutic and deep relaxation techniques, a truly innovative experience occurs in each session. Clients say my warm hands provide a gentle, yet firm, flowing hypnotic style of bodywork. They call me caring, intuitive, intentional, and kind. I strive to live up to those compliments daily. I feel my forte is upper body work, which often takes a whole body approach to find long-term peace and resolution.

We’re shaped by our experiences, mentally and physically, and that life story shows up in our body, both good and bad. By exploring together in session, we decipher those negative impacts and narratives to co-create a positive new script of body wellness. I’m honored to help guide my clients on their very personal journey, be it one of recovery or utterly deep relaxation. My goal is to deliver exactly what your body needs in that moment so you can reach your goal of doing what you love most in life for as long as possible. I want that for you. I’m here for you.
