Intentional, loving, and healing touch has been an integral part of my journey since the very beginning. My grandmother, Donnagene, graduated from massage school the same year I was born, and from an early age, she introduced me to the transformative power of bodywork. I spent my childhood visiting her spa, where I learned not only from her teachings but also from the deep connection formed through receiving her nurturing touch. As the owner of this massage studio, the name “Deep Roots” is a tribute to that foundational influence.

My formal training began at The Pacific Center for Awareness and Bodywork in Kauai, Hawaii, where I learned the importance of postural alignment alongside various modalities, including deep tissue, sports massage, and Swedish relaxation. I have also been trained in cupping therapy, which continues to impress me for its remarkable ability to release tension, promote detoxification, and enhance mobility.

In 2014, I had the privilege of traveling to Thailand and Laos to study the art of Thai yoga massage, and later to Nepal with a group of massage therapists. There, we set up massage clinics and taught locals how to work on each other—a profoundly meaningful experience that I hold dear.

I bring together intuition, compassion, and a broad knowledge base in a variety of modalities to offer healing, balance, and comfort to the body, mind, and spirit.
