ABOUT ME

My exploration of the mind/body/spirit connection began when I was a child growing up in a rural NC county. The first yoga class I took made that connection undeniable as I experienced stress relief and tension release during savasana at a level I had not known was possible. It brought me to tears. We don’t all have easy, breezy childhoods and while mine was not the worst, I needed what yoga was offering; a way to cultivate inner peace. I’ve been on that path ever since.

When I attended an open house info session at the massage school that I ended up enrolling in, I knew it was a part of my path. Looking back now, I see how many amazing and wonderful experiences and connections have blossomed and continue to unfold from that first step. Reiki and Shamanic offerings are part of that unfolding. As I continue to learn and evolve, I will continue to bring more and more to the table and to the mat with me. It’s an honor to serve through healing arts.

These days I share a home outside of Asheville, NC with my teenage son and a big floofy dog. We’ve been on our own recovery journey in the aftermath of a freak accident and then losing our home shortly after, when Hurricane Helene hit WNC. I know I’m still here by grace of God and I like to keep things simple. Life is too short for anything but truth, kindness, love, and compassion. I highly recommend laughing, dancing, and singing every day. Rest and Recreation is key and it’s perfectly acceptable to pretend one is a mermaid from time to time.
