I was born and raised in Kenai, Alaska. I attended Kenai Peninsula College where I studied as an emergency medical technician before moving to Anchorage.
In 2015 I was involved in a car accident that left me injured and in constant pain. Looking for a lasting way to be pain free, I came to find Rolfing. After my ten session series I felt like I had my life back. Believing strongly in the positive impact of structural integration, I was inspired to become a practitioner.
With 1300 curriculum hours, I graduated from The New School of Structural Integration in Laguna Beach, California in 2020.
