I completed my massage therapy training at Carrington College in Boise, where I built a strong foundation in anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, and hands-on therapeutic techniques. Even though the class size was small, I really enjoyed my time there and built strong connections with classmates, making a lot of friends and acquaintances along the way. The program covered both relaxation and medical-based massage, including working with muscle imbalances, injury recovery, and pain management.

Since graduating, I’ve continued to grow by learning from other experienced therapists I’ve worked with and trained alongside. That hands-on environment has helped me pick up new techniques, refine my approach, and better understand how to adapt to different clients’ needs.

I’m always looking for ways to keep improving and expanding my skill set.

I got into massage therapy during a low point in my life where I realized I needed to start showing up for myself. Choosing this path gave me structure, purpose, and a way to rebuild. As I got deeper into the training, I found that I genuinely loved the work, learning how the body functions and being able to help people feel and move better. It turned into more than just a career choice; it became something I take pride in.

I want people to understand that pain and tightness aren’t things you just have to live with. Your body is always adapting to how you move, train, and recover. Taking care of it through proper recovery, stretching, hydration, and regular bodywork can make a huge difference. Small habits done consistently can prevent bigger issues down the line.

I enjoy working on the upper back because it’s an area where a lot of stress and tension tend to build up. Tightness in this region can contribute to headaches and migraines, especially with poor posture or long hours of sitting. It’s rewarding because relieving that tension can make a noticeable difference not just in pain, but in overall comfort and mobility.

Outside of massage, I enjoy building model kits and spending time hanging out with friends. I’m also a music creator and publish my own tracks on Spotify. Music is a big creative outlet for me and a way to balance out my work while staying inspired and grounded.
