« How can I make this fun? »
Superpowers
I speak six languages, have lived in nine cities across five countries, and always manage to find my way wherever I am. But my true superpower is making people feel at ease—whether through conversation, movement, or simply a well-placed shoulder release.
Passions
For me, movement is a way to explore the world: hiking through mountain trails, sea kayaking along remote coastlines, discovering new cities on foot, or bikepacking through unfamiliar roads. From Pilates to outdoor expeditions to everyday practice, movement has always shaped my life—and I love helping others see their own body as a gateway to adventure.
Approach
I view massage as a blend of science, art, and investigation. Each session becomes a personalized exploration, where I adapt my techniques so that each person leaves more relaxed, lighter, and more connected to their body.
Biography
A massage therapist and certified yoga teacher, I am also studying exercise science and training to teach Pilates. Before joining the clinic, I guided outdoor adventures in Hong Kong, British Columbia, Ecuador, and the Galápagos Islands, supporting participants in pushing beyond their limits.
