Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I'll ask what's going on for you, and what your goals are for the session, but there's always room to change and adjust while we work. Some people like to take an active role in directing their session, and some like to just let go--I'm great with both of those approaches. This is your time and I'll help you make the best of it.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I continually add to my training through active membership in state and national massage organizations. I originally certified in Therapeutic Massage in California after studying at the Burke Williams Academy.

How did you get started in this business?
I used to be a documentary filmmaker hauling over mountains and deserts with a 25 lb camera on one shoulder. I soon found regular massage was necessary to keep me performing at my peak. I understand the demands professionals place on their bodies, and I can help you keep up with those demands.
What types of customers have you worked with?
As a sought-after therapist in Los Angeles I would literally be working with rock-stars one day and roadies the next. Actors, artists, entrepreneurs, I work with anyone who wants to feel and perform better. I'm a Massage Geek, totally passionate about getting great results for people and their bodies. My clients keep returning for my attention to detail and commitment to 5-star service.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Currently I'm creating the spa menu for GreatHorse, a private lifestyle club in Western Massachusetts. It's a beautiful venue, and the services will blow your mind.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
Word of mouth is a great start, I always ask people I trust where they get their bodywork. Then, a phone call can actually really help! Ultimately, you're looking for someone you resonate with, someone who listens to you with their ears and their hands.
