Start your Journey
My journey with massage began at the age of 12, when I knew in my heart that this work would be a significant part of my life. After attending The Bodhi Tree Center for Healing Arts and graduating in 2008, I spent the majority of my career in a day spa setting. It was there that I honed the art of listening—both to my clients and to my own intuition—allowing me to customize each massage to the individual’s unique needs. This environment also supported my personal growth and deepened my understanding of healing work.
Over the years, I’ve developed a strong foundation in prenatal, post-surgical, and sports injury-related massage. I often incorporate techniques such as positional release, nervous system relaxation, and neuromuscular therapy. In the past five years, I’ve expanded my practice to include Cupping, Craniosacral Therapy, Myofascial Release, Trauma Touch Therapy, and Reiki, all of which allow for deeper healing on both a physical and energetic level.
I currently live in Dayton, Nevada with my husband of 20 years and our 11-year-old son. We enjoy walking our dog Lily, gardening, cooking, and cozy movie nights. Personally, I love reading, visiting the Carson City Hot Springs, practicing Yoga Nidra, a form of meditation (which I affectionately call “bedroom yoga”), and attending live Sound Healing events.
It is my passion and purpose to hold space for healing—wherever that may be.It gives me great fulfillment to integrate my skills with your individual needs, fostering improved well-being for you, while contributing to a healthier and more compassionate world.
