Bio: Prior to earning my Certificate as a massage therapist, I completed my doctorate in Educational Psychology at the University of San Francisco. At the time I was working on my doctorate, I was also teaching English Composition/Literature at San Francisco State University where I have earned two MA degrees; one in English Composition/Literature, and the other in Broadcast Communication Arts.

Prior to teaching, which I did for 12 years, I worked as an environmental journalist for a national news program that aired in 85 national markets. After our program was cancelled, I began working in film; however, I felt that few of the films I worked on did much in the way of helping society become more intelligent, so I turned to teaching. But once SFSU denied access to the "remedial" students with whom I loved working with most, I decided to become a massage therapist. With this career I am able to work with my clients in order to help them heal themselves physically, mentally, and emotionally.
