ABOUT ME

After serving in the US Navy straight out of high school, I later became a chef manager. After some time, I realized that my purpose in life was not in food service, but rather servicing and nourishing people's mind & body connection.  I dove into the study of the body's anatomy and physiology, and attended The Houston School of Massage where I earned a license in massage therapy. I have been practicing massage since 2015.   

​

During my off-time, I enjoy spending time with my family including my dog, Tito, as well as tending to my vegetable and herb garden. These days, a healthy chunk of my time goes to preparing for my next goal of becoming a certified aromatherapist.

​

MY SPECIALITY

My specialty is in therapeutic massage with the intention of correcting postural deviations and balancing the body.  The approach I use uniquely combines clinical massage with a relaxing touch. This is accomplished by focusing on fluidity, transitions, and working layer by layer through the tissue and muscles using deep tissue massage, trigger point work, and light stretching.  While firm pressure is my strength, relaxation and comfort are always the ideal goal. I enjoy working with clients to resolve chronic pain, headaches, and other issues.

​

WHAT DIFFERENTIATES ME FROM OTHER THERAPISTS

Custom tailoring each massage to the individual clients allows me to provide a specific and unique massage for their needs at the time.  It is equally important for me to educate my clients about how to provide self-care to progressively reach a point of living without pain. 

​

OTHER SERVICES

In addition to helping my own clients, I am also a part of the Integrated Healthcare Team at St. Luke’s Hospital. 

 

 

Through massage therapy, I am contributing not only to my client’s physical health, but also their emotional, mental, and spiritual health as well.
