I've spend most of my life studying movement. I started studying ballet at the age of 7, eventually getting into modern dance. After years of dance training and performing, In 1999 I started the BFA Dance program  at New World School of the Arts. It was there, during my freshman year, that I was introduced to yoga by a dance teacher. Upon graduation I dove into my yoga practice, and soon after successfully completed the 200RYT yoga teacher certification program at Miami Yogashala.

I first became interested in massage while in college. Besides a demanding dance curriculum we extensively studied the body in classes like anatomy for dance, kinesiology and labanotation movement analysis. While attending the yoga teacher training I got the chance to attend a thai massage workshop. It was then that I finally made up my mind, and that's how I ended up in Educating Hands School of Massage.

The way our bodies move and function fascinates me, and massage therapy allows me not only to understand it more, but also to directly work with it.

I want to help people, heal them, provide them with an incredible sense of pleasure and relief with my touch.

Since a very young age I've been preoccupied with the why's and how's of everything; life, nature, human beings, and simply why all things are the way they are. Besides finding my place in the universe, my main focus in this life is to achieve balance. Balance between the illusion of what is and the illusion of what is not, balance between what I do and I don't, say and don't say, are and aren't. Always with gratitude and compassion, surrendering into everything, always trying to do it a little better everyday - judgement, overindulgence, laziness, intolerance, hatred, impatience - stopping myself midsentence.

Absolutely everything I've done in my life has led me to this present moment, and I trust myself and the universe to keep taking me exactly where I'm meant to be. I believe I'm here to serve a purpose - to help heal, educate, inspire, open people's eyes and hearts.
