My Story

Welcome, I am a licensed massage therapist located in beautiful Bend Oregon. I moved to Bend from Portland area in 2014 with a degree in Culinary Arts and then switched to Massage Therapy in 2018. I graduated Central Oregon Community Colleges' massage therapy program in June of 2020 and continued my education in sports science and exercise physiology. I specialize in athlete optimization and recovery, sports massage and cupping.

If I am not in the office, I am out hiking with my Husky Meeka, riding my mountain bike or out on the gym floor lifting weights. I do also spend a lot of time cooking and baking. I love to come up with new recipes both sweet and savory.

I chose massage therapy to not only help people physically but to be a part of their whole healing journey and walk with clients every step of the way, celebrate the break-trough’s as well as support and strengthen the weaknesses. My goal with clients is to create a sustainable plan for optimizing performance in daily living as well as during athletic activities. I currently operate out Xcel Fitness in on Bend's Northeast side.

Where does “Feelin’ Butter?” come from? One day I just felt extremely puny, being a sports massage therapist and a baker… butter rhymes with better and cookies require butter. That being said, you might have noticed you can order cookies. Cookies are my piece of culinary school that I have chosen to bring into my massage practice. I get quite a lot of joy out of baking and out of other people being excited about cookies. I hope everyone leaves feeling “butter” after an encounter with me weather it’s after a massage or just picking up some cookies from the office.
