Last Updated: Jan 19, 06:32

- Even as I am going back to school for my B.B.A. I believe that when I continue on to a new career path, I will always have a room dedicated for my studio for clients I have met over the years. It will be something I always do on the side. I enjoy bringing others relief, either therapeutic or personal, I just enjoy making a difference in someone's day/week/year/life.

- Trade massages with others in your field, see what other people are doing. Pay attention to what feels good, what you'd do differently, what you'd do the same. Show respect to others, it's so easy to do yet it's so lost on so many. Be true to your word, if you set a time, be prompt. Be compassionate, don't make harsh judgements and have an open mind. And treat others the way you would want to be treated, regardless of how you are treated. It's all about peace and love

- My theory is this, before there was schooling for massage there was still massage therapist. I think you have to have the touch. I've always known I had that touch as I'd constantly have the other servers I worked with following me around trying to get me to rub their shoulders back when I was in the restaurant industry

- I have become addicted to landscaping my yard, I find it extremely therapeutic. Other hobbies include cooking, reading, and spending time with my German Shepard puppy Diesel.

- I had pinched a nerve in my shoulder several years back and the pain was debilitating. I saw 5 different mts hoping to find a relief to the misery I was in. Thankfully I found it as the alternative was invasive surgery. I cannot tell you the pain that I was in but I can tell you how beneficial massage therapy can be when done by someone who takes pride in their ability.

- I would. I have been able to create an actual business that I stand behind. I have sponsored organizations such as the Houston hurricanes and have made my studio something to truly be proud of.
