What are your hobbies, what do you like to do in your spare time?

I'm a professional video editor, graphic designer, and artist. So when i'm not working on a freelance project, I generally keep my own life very artistic as well. Embroidery, wiresculpture, LED neon sculpture, interior design, hosting friends for movie nights, video games, playing guitar, piano, autoharp, or accordion.

Tell us a little about yourself, if you were to pick something what would you like your clients to absolutely know about you?

If I had to narrow it down, I would say that the thing I'd most want clients to know about me, is that I'm very, very easygoing. I love conversation, I love connection, I love the intricacies of getting to know someone, or just getting to listen to them. One of my favorite books is Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin, and living in SF, it feels very real to just listen to people from all walks of life tell me a bit about themselves while they're on my table. Its also a really special and unique dynamic to have someone just far enough removed, and discrete enough, that sometimes it can be very emotionally therapeutic to talk through some aspects of their life without it feeling invasive or too vulnerable.

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

Yes! Growing up I was surrounded by wonderful folks in the energy work field, and in addition, my mother was a birth doula. So from a young age I feel like I was always learning about how to support one another by comforting eachothers physical bodies. Seeing some of the transformative work that people around me were doing, was really inspiring to my decision to pursue massage.
