Beyond Massage
I have enjoyed living car-free in Boulder since 1987. I love being outdoors. I bicycle, hike, skate, swim and do yoga. I sing and write songs and have been known to perform. I love to dance to 80s music.
I enjoy visiting Mexico and learning Spanish. I have traveled and bicycle-toured on five continents.
I graduated from the University of Colorado at Boulder with a degree in mathematics and sociology. Before my career in massage therapy, I worked at The Rape Crisis Team (now Moving to End Sexual Assault), the Center for People With Disabilities and volunteered at the Colorado Therapeutic Riding Center. These jobs taught me that I really enjoy working with people, especially in a one-on-one situation where I can build relationships with my clients. Bodywork is a perfect fit for me. My work energizes and inspires me.
