I serve the massage therapy community with the best writing, education, and art that I can provide.
I started teaching massage before I graduated from massage school—which is a clue to how long ago that was. With the exception of a hiatus while my children were young, I taught continuously from 1984-2010 at schools in Washington, Massachusetts and Utah. In 2005 I was honored to be chosen as the Jerome Perlinski AMTA Council of Schools Teacher of the Year; I suspect that had a lot to do with how I explain irritable bowel syndrome (hint: my theatre degree comes in very handy in this discussion).
I no longer teach in core curriculum programs, but I have developed several live and online continuing education classes based on my expertise in pathology and related subjects. For more information about finding or hosting workshops or webinars, click here.
