I feel very fortunate to support my clients in welcoming the gifts of freedom, health, and vitality into their lives through the practice of massage. Whether you’re an active athlete seeking to support your body’s best performance, or you’re recovering from injury, pain, or a stressful lifestyle, massage has the capacity to support you in nurturing your body’s innate potential for healing and growth.

I have been enjoying the practice of massage since 2010 when, on a whim, I decided to take a course in Swedish massage at the San Francisco School of Massage. I immediately resonated with this art form, which intersects my curiosities around matters of health and wellness, several movement traditions (most notably, yoga and gymnastics), science, and spirituality. I have continued to explore many styles and traditions of bodywork, including biodynamic massage, biodynamic cranial therapy, craniosacral therapy, deep tissue, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, and zen shiatsu. I am also a Reiki master in the tradition of Mikao Usui. In 2015-2016 I spent several months in Southeast Asia, studying Thai-Yoga massage and other traditional healing modalities. My practice is grounded in a regular engagement with a Buddhist meditation technique called Vipassana, which means “to see things as they are.”

Outside of my practice, I’m constantly seeking and exploring new adventures with movement. I enjoy the beautiful playground the PNW offers for hiking, water activities, yoga, biking, and running. You can often find me working to improve my handstand, where I enjoy playing with my body and life from an inverted perspective.
