Do you remember your first client ? Tell us something about that first day when you decided to be a Masseur!

I remember it like it was yesterday. I had just graduated from massage school and was excited to finally be on my own, although a little nervous to be honest. Andre came to my massage studio and it was an incredible experience. I think the biggest accomplishment to me is that still to this day, 10 years later, I still see him as a client and we have now become good friends.

Some people say that being a Masseur is addictive. Would you miss your Masseur days ?

I definitely would. And I did. I took a 5 year break and coming back to it, I realized how much I missed it. I'm obsessed with human anatomy, regardless of the shape, size, or age. And being there in the moment when you are massaging, exchanging your energy, is something really special. I think that is what makes me stand out from other therapists. I enjoy what I do and I am connected to my client as I work on them. Some other therapists, which I have experienced, are there for the money, and many aren't even trained. Not me. For me massage is a shared journey between client and therapist.

How often do you travel? Do you prefer to travel or are you more of a homebody?

I love to travel. It is my favorite hobby. I have been to every continent so far and the more adventurous the trip the better. However, when I am in New York I am a homebody. I rarely go out to clubs or bars. I usually like to stay at home and watch movies with my doggies and relax. Nothing like a good glass of wine, a good movie, and good company :)
