I am happily a married father of two adult daughters.  I like to bike and run or sit on my back patio under an umbrella in the summer months sipping one of my home made frappes.  After 23 years of working as an administrator at Washington State University, I decided to mix it up and change careers.  Given that I am a deeply relational person who enjoys serving others, massage seemed like a good fit.   Although I do not have passion for a particular modality of massage or for working with a specific population at this time, currently I do have an interest in working with individuals recovering from injuries.  Given my curious, playful, yet soft spoken temperament, I could also see myself working well with older populations or even youth.  I enjoy being active and I have a personal goal to live to be 100.  I prefer participating in sports rather than being a spectator.  In the winter I ski and snowboard and in the summer I enjoy biking and running. This summer I plan to learn how to kite surf.
