I’ve been a massage therapist since 1999. I still maintain a private practice today, specializing in ashiatsu. In 2009, I co-founded Bodywork Buddy Massage Software, and have spent the last 14 years helping massage therapists run their business smoothly and effortlessly with simple-to-use tech for online scheduling and practice management. My latest adventure is a merging of my tech expertise, tools, and marketing experience gained from both my private massage practice and massage software business to create the seamless digital marketing tool of Bodywork Media which includes automated social media posts for massage therapists.
