As a young child I always had the passion to care for others,dance and fitness. As soon as I graduated high school I knew I wanted to dedicate my life to providing care for others. During my Freshman year of college I had my mind set on becoming a PTA, but life had a different plan for me.While taking summer classes at Wallace State CC, I was introduced to their massage therapy program, I applied and got accepted to start in the Fall. While in the program my passion grew as well as my knowledge of Swedish and Deep Tissue technique and how amazing the human body works. After graduating in 2013 I continued feeding my knowledge with CEUs and attending every massage convention that offered a variety of modalities: Thai Yoga, Chinese Fire cupping, Geriatrics, Precision Neuromuscular Therapy, Osteoarthritis, TMJ/ Headache and Migraine. My passion for care didn't stop there, I completed training and became a licensed EMT Basic in 2015 with Jefferson State CC EMS program. During my time in that program I danced with UAB Marching Blazers as a Blazerette. Being a dancer for over 15 years has truly enhanced my ability to understand the human body from an athletic standpoint as well. Being a caregiver and massage therapist has introduced me to so many amazing things that allows me to be a better dance coach, fitness instructor and provide excellent care to my clients as well as a long lasting bond.
