I grew up as a pretty serious and competitive athlete, which led me to learn everything I could about nutrition, the human body, and the role of diet in our mental and physical performance. This planted a seed for my growing interest in the intersection of physical wellness and emotional wellness as I strongly believe that the two cannot be separated.
​
In 2013, I graduated from RIT where I earned a BS degree in various forms of art, along with a minor in psychology and concentrations in writing and exercise science. After college, I worked several odd jobs and pursued a career as a freelance artist. I created album artwork for local musicians, illustrated caricatures, and painted landscapes. I started seriously learning to compose music around this time. Although these continue to be areas of passion for me, I felt something limiting in the level of meaningful impact they could have on the lives of others.
​
This led to my pursuit of becoming a massage therapist in 2019, with the goal of finding a space where I could assemble all of these pieces of myself as both a creative and scientific person and apply my being to something significantly helpful to others.
I studied massage therapy at the New York Institute of Massage in Buffalo, NY. It ended up being a perfect crossover of my skill sets and interests in ways I didn’t expect. I discovered the connections between massage and sculpting, and the human body took on a new form for me.
My specific passion for neurology and its application in massage emerged, as I believe the nervous system has so much to do with every aspect of our health, all the way down to the thoughts we have.
​
In my work, I use a combination of Swedish, Deep Tissue, and Myofascial techniques while taking deliberate care to properly assess problem areas. I deliver a customized massage experience in order to meet your specific health needs and goals as a client.
My main goal is to help you improve your quality of life while providing an empathetic, relaxed, and nourishing environment.
