Interests/Hobbies

I've always been an avid reader who believes the imagination is the seed that creates change/beginnings. Reading helped stimulate my imagination which in turned encouraged me to pursue that which not only helps me to be the best version of myself but to assist others in their journey as well.  I was a professional dancer and fitness instructor skilled in West African, Latin, Caribbean, Modern and Hip-Hop techniques. Rhythmic movement to me was always spiritual and allowed me to remain grounded by staying physically and mentally fit.  Massage is the perfect way to condition our bodies ( and minds) so that we can continue to move independently and freely, naturally. I have been fortunate enough to be in circumstances where sharing my passions with family, friends and community has created more enriching experiences.
