Though born and raised in the Chicago area, I spent over 20 years in NYC where I studied music at NYU and then worked as a pianist, conductor and music director for such Broadway shows as Avenue Q, Mamma Mia, Next To Normal, The Band’s Visit and Hamilton. I have always been a firm believer in the healing power of touch, utilizing massage as routine maintenance to sustain my music career. ‍ A work-related injury introduced me to Alexander Technique which in turn brought about a fascination with anatomy, unknowingly planting a seed for a future massage education. One of my core beliefs is that we are given one body for our time on this planet, let’s understand how it works and set it up for success for a long and healthy existence!
