About me

I am a licensed massage therapist of 13 years with 4 years of teaching experience.  I am a 2003 graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University and a 2007 graduate of the American Institute of Massage. I hold certifications in Massage, Personal Training and Lypossage. I had the unique experience of working as a massage therapist directly under an Orthopedic Physician and am currently in private practice specializing in injury rehabilitation and body contouring massage.

I have taught both the massage and anatomy sections of the massage program at The Lotus School of Integrated Professions and now serve as the Director of the Massage Therapy program, Chairman of the Massage Advisory Board and Lead Massage Instructor at Lotus.  I also hold the position of Technical Trainer for the Commonwealth of Virginia for Massage Envy Corporate teaching their proprietary continuing education classes. 

I am trained in many massage modalities to include Neuromuscular Therapy, Myofascial Release, Lypossage (a body contouring technique), Lymphatic Drainage, Trigger Point Therapy, Deep Tissue Massage, Swedish Massage, Reflexology, Sports Massage, Medical Massage, Kinesio-Massage, Pregnancy, Geriatrics, Cranio-Sacral and Energy Work.

I love being able to help my clients out of pain and to rehabilitate their injuries so that they can return to their normal activity stronger than ever.  Every massage is tailored to that clients specific needs.
