About Me

For the past decade, I've been on a journey of self-discovery and healing through travel. Along the way, life has offered me countless miracles and profound lessons that ultimately led me to massage therapy.Somatic bodywork and movement have had a huge impact on my health- mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually. They have taught me how deeply our bodies hold both resilience and wisdom.I became a massage therapist because I want my community to experience that same sense of healing, peace and possibility.I completed 621 hours of therapeutic massage training (2024–2025) at the Downeast School of Massage in Maine, USA, and 26 hours of Chi Nei Tsang training (2025) at Blue Garden Yoga and Massage in Chiang Mai, Thailand.My practice has wandered through the serene coastline of Maine (March–September 2025), the dense, vibrant energy of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam (October 2025–April 2026), and now finds its new roots in Naarm-Melbourne.

My Philosphy

My practice is rooted in Mettā (loving-kindness) and Sevā (selfless service).Every person carries their own stories, patterns, and emotions. Through mindful touch, I aim to create space for you to breathe, soften, and connect.I see myself as an ally for you and your body; supporting your process with compassion, curiosity, and care.My sessions are slow, intuitive and blending relaxation and grounded awareness.
