I came to massage after 10 years of running education programs that worked with Latino families and public school teachers in Durham. In 2018, I experienced the powerful healing effects of massage and acupuncture at Armonía Health. Wanting to approach challenges I saw in the community in new ways and continue my personal health journey, I embarked on a bold lifestyle change. In 2019, I graduated from Carolina Massage Institute in Hillsborough, North Carolina (NC LMBT# 18823) and in 2021 enrolled in a four-year masters level program at Jung Tao School of Classical Chinese Medicine. I earned a Diplomat in Acupuncture and became a licensed practitioner in 2025 (NC L.Ac. 2325).

Acupuncture and massage are often thought of as a luxury services, but I believe they are an essential part of keeping a body working its best. I typically see clients who have pain and tension from demanding jobs and family life.

I blend different therapeutic techniques with relaxation. Depending on the needs of the client, I may use acupuncture, moxibustion, Swedish massage, deep tissue massage, cupping therapy, gua sha, and Tui Na (Chinese massage) to promote relaxation, manage stress and pain, and increase mobility.

I believe the integration of massage, acupuncture, movement therapy, and energy work is transformative, and I value the opportunity to work with the practitioners at Armonía Health to provide the best possible client care.
