Why did you become a Massage Therapist? I was lucky enough to stumble upon this career after my mum encouraged me. I would massage my mums hands, feet, legs, arms and her face whilst she was fighting cancer. Turns out I loved it!
Where can we find you on a Saturday afternoon? You'll find me either hanging out with my family, watching (or playing) netball, or hanging out at dog trials.
What motto do you live by? Be curious, not judgemental. Ted Lasso
Do you have any hidden talents? I make a mean margarita, although I don’t think this is hidden. I can also juggle.
If you could only eat one food for the rest of your life, what would you choose? Pasta, pasta and pasta
