Since I was younger I’ve always had this need to work with my hands so I set out to work in the family restaurant business cooking while balancing my studies during high school. Shortly after I attended a college for Engineering, still maintaining my place cooking at my cousin’s restaurant. Upon graduating college with my engineering degree I slowly began to realize that maybe this wasn’t the right direction for me as I wasn’t as passionate to pursue this career as, let’s say, being a Massage Therapist. Shortly after my college graduation in 2004 I landed a job in the Telecommunications field giving me the opportunity to socialize with people from all different backgrounds. Now at this point I remember looking for a local place to get a massage to see what it was all about. In doing so I met a wonderful Massage Therapist whom, after our first treatment together, made me start reconsider what it is I want to do “when I grow up”. I literally thought when I walked out from my treatment “Oh man if I could make people feel as good as this it would be the most rewarding thing EVER! In Sept 2010 I enrolled as a student to pursue a career in Massage Therapy. It was there that I began to realize how much I love the fact that I can help people. I can say that if it wasn’t for the solid foundation built by my instructors I wouldn’t be the person and Massage Therapist that I am today. Upon graduating in March 2012, I have a deeper appreciation for all that massage therapy can do for a person whether it’s mentally, physically or spiritually. I’m currently in the process of becoming an Orthopedic Certified Massage Therapist to add onto the modality I have already learned. During treatment, I typically combine different modalities (Swedish, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point, Sports, Orthopedic) together based on the client’s needs/wants.
