BACKGROUND
I grew up in New England and attended Dartmouth College where I ran Track and Field and Cross Country. Post college, I worked in financial security sales for many years. After taking time off from career to raise my two children, I decided to work in the holistic health care field. I studied therapeutic bodywork in 1999 at Alive & Well, The Institute for Conscious Body Work in San Anselmo, CA. Since starting my practice in 2000, I continue to augment my bodywork knowledge of cutting edge techniques with the best practitioners and teachers available.
As a fitness and outdoor enthusiast, I appreciate the efforts of smart exercise, good nutrition, and rehabilitation bodywork. For fitness I advocate cross training and myself enjoy, swimming, cycling, hiking, roller blading, and resistance exercises. I believe that outdoor hobbies, especially those that raise the heart rate, are the best medicine for mind and body. For my clients’ and my own general health and athletic challenge needs, I enjoy keeping abreast of the latest opinions on nutrition, supplements, and exercise.
