I came to San Juan Island from Bigfoot Country Northern California in 2015. On the fourth spring of my return, I made a choice to move here permanently. I have been working at the Earthbox ever since. I grow most of my own food, am a certified herbalist, cyclist, volunteer fire fighter, and love the outdoors.

When I was 24, I was crushed between a car and a tree. Massage became the most powerful healing modality during my recovery. Endorphins are the best pain killers. Our body naturally produces them and they are released during massage - it’s wonderful. Endorphins combined with Dopamine, Serotonin and Oxytocin are the perfect neurotransmitter cocktail for happiness. It is a great joy to guide clients out of pain and into a state of bliss.
