Last Updated: Oct 05, 18:08

- I've been practicing massage work for 30 years and I will continue to offer massage work for as long as I'm able.

- I want clients to feel that they received a terrific massage and it was 100% worth their time and money.

- I was pursuing an a career in entertainment and I wanted to find a trade that was meaningful and that I could always take care of myself with, while pursuing other creative interests.

- I'm honest and kind and reliable and I always give my clients 100% of what I have to offer.

- I've been offering massage work on and off for years. I've had other jobs simultaneously to my massage practice and I always appreciate returning to massage work as I find it very rewarding to make people feel better.

- I think there are many ways to find a healing through massage. For me, I feel that my extensive training gives me tools and knowledge to solve problems and offer a highly skilled massage.

- I travel whenever I'm able. It's one of my favorite things to do.

- I'm licensed, I went to one of the best schools for massage therapy. I have 30 years of experience working in gyms and spa's and I genuinely like to help people feel better. I'm reliable, kind, compassionate and I always give my work 100% of what I have to offer.

- Get good training, so you know what you're doing and how to solve problems. The work is so much more interesting and rewarding that way.

- I read a lot every day. I try to stay fit. I enjoy going to museums and performances and connecting with friends and family.

- My goal is to always be at 100% and offer the best possible massage I can offer. I want clients to feel refreshed, relaxed, centered, healed and that their time and money was well spent. Which is why I only do two massages a day.

- Yes, I do. I have found doing massage work to indeed be meaningful. There something profound in helping other people feel better and help them heal. In all of the years I've been doing massage work, at the end of the day, no matter what was going on with me personally, I've always found it very gratifying to know that I made someone feel better that day.

- I don't remember exactly who was my first client. But, my first job after I got my NY State Massage License was a place called the Beach on Christopher Street. I decided to go to The Swedish Institute of Massage, because at the time I was pursuing an acting career and like many I was a cater waiter. I came to a point where I wanted to do something more meaningful- find a trade I could always take care of myself with. And, one morning after a particularly brutal catering job, I decided I would get a massage license. One of the best choices I've ever made.
