My mother was a nurse for many years while living up north (in New Jersey/Delaware/Pennsylvania). When she relocated to Tennessee (shortly after marrying my step father) she decided to attend Massage School and open her own Massage business in Mountain City. At the same time, I moved from Delaware to Colorado. I stayed in Colorado for almost 7 years working in the Business Industry and in Finance.  Consequently, after many years of working with the public I switched gears and decided to pursue a career in bodywork. In 2006 I left Colorado and moved to Tennessee to attend Massage School in Boone, NC. In 2007 I became a Licensed Massage Therapist and began helping my mother run her already established business "Serenity Therapeutic Massage".

I began my career working with more of the special populations such as work with the geriatric community, veterans, and those that were handicap. I also found a true passion for working with expectant moms as well as clients that were larger framed. As an individual who has personally struggled with weight my whole life I found a lot of enjoyment in providing comfort and care to those who were most responsive to the work. I expanded my skills by incorporating Hot Stones as well as Asian Cupping into my approach for deeper work.
