BIO

Born and raised in small town Kansas I moved to Colorado in 2012 to grow and create a new life. It was a passion of mine to become a massage therapist starting at the age of 13. I worked as a preschool teacher, nanny, phlebotomist, medical assistant and dental assistant before finally following my dream of becoming a massage therapist. In March of 2020 I was furloughed from my dental assisting position due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This allowed me time to re-evaluate my career path and make the decision to attend Denver Integrative Massage School where I graduated in June of 2021. There I learned to provide Swedish, deep tissue/myofascial, Thai, cupping, prenatal, foot reflexology, and chair massage. As a former dental assistant  I am continuously expanding my knowledge in TMJD (Temporomandibular Joint Disorder) to be able to provide massage for the face and intra oral work of the mouth. I have advanced training in pre and postnatal massage as well. In 2023 I found my second career as an Orofacial Myofunctional Therapist (OMT). Myofunctional therapy is an exercise training program for the muscles around your face, mouth, and tongue. These exercises are designed to improve issues with talking, eating, and breathing. In my spare time you can find me volunteering with Hog Haven Farm, a mini pig rescue here in  Colorado, scuba diving, and exploring Colorado with my husband, two corgis and mini pig.
