More about Me

I’m a Denver native who moved to Seattle in 2016, goaded into it by a friend I’d met at Burning Man 3 years prior. (Yes, I’ve been- 4 times)

By that statement alone you can probably guess that I’m a fan of authentic expression in all its forms- and along those lines, I’m prone to cursing (you’ll likely already know this if you follow me on Instagram ). So if you’re not someone who can accept that, we’re probably not a fit- no hard feelings!

I went to school for Art; I studied Photography and Art History at the University of Colorado at Boulder, and I like to joke that I just changed from one dark room to another when I changed careers.

It wasn’t as seamless as it sounds though: there were about 6 years between college and massage school. It was actually my now-husband who got me to get my license. (He’s also a massage therapist) On our 3rd date he gave me a sort of “put up or shut up” talk about how good I was at touching people and why wasn’t I doing that as a career? (I had already gotten a Thai Massage certification and was practicing occasionally)

So with the help of his and my mentor, Joe Lavin, I went to massage school and learned how to give table massage. And the rest, they could say, is history, but I’D say, it’s TBD! So far, I’m loving being able to provide loving touch & educate people about their bodies. Truth be told, when I was entering college I was down to Photography or Biology as majors & I knew I didn’t want to work in a lab or be a doctor, so I chose art. Little did I know my career path would lead me all the way back to the weird & wonderful human body!
