About Me

I have been interested in societal healing, trauma therapy, and the amazing power of touch therapy since I was very young. I was born in Salzburg, Austria and moved to the United States with my mom in 2001. In 2018 I attained my Bachelor of Science degree in Political Science concentrating in political philosophy. After traveling the world for nearly a year, I came back to the States to pursue my massage therapy education. I have since spent my time working at a couple of different spas, only to discover I needed to concentrate more on my clients in a way that a corporate setting would not allow. 

My primary interests within the field of Massage Therapy include anything involving work deeper than "surface level." I enjoy learning and exploring the undeniable connection between various forms of trauma and how events have shaped us into the individuals we have become, bodily, mentally, and spiritually speaking. In fact, this is exactly the reason why political philosophy and holistic healing aren't actually too different! Whereas politics is fundamentally an applied type of ethics, and societies are the culmination of many years worth of hard work and oftentimes trauma, so too are our bodies.

Massage and Bodywork are fantastic ways to gain perspective on how our divine bodies are operating; whether it be from a place of fear, peace, sadness, etc., our bodies keep the score. Everything that has happened to you leading up to this very moment is key in understanding the functioning of yourself!

I live in Ann Arbor with my wonderful husband and our two adorable kitties, Pumpkin Pie and Cilantro. My hobbies include plants and gardening, playing guitar, thrifting, reading, arts and crafts, interior decor, and cozy video games!
