HOW I BECAME GLOW MASSAGE & SPAWORKS

I started out about 20 years ago enrolling at East West College of the Healing Arts in Portland, where I studied to be a massage therapist for a year. I then moved to the San Francisco Bay Area and found an amazing massage therapy program and YES, went to school for yet another year. I also at this time studied Oncology massage and also became a certified health educator. Soon after school and messing around in the field just to get my feet wet, I found what would be (basically anyways) my forever home, with my three bosses, and now good friends, at Glow Skin and Body in San Mateo California. They were all estheticians and because earlier in life I had also become a cosmetologist, I decided to go back to school to be an esthetician. With some of the best in the Bay Area behind me, I was fortunate to have had some of the best training available. I have always considered the girls at Glow skin and body to be my Glow family. Over the years I have done things like moved to Portland and worked there, but also flew back and forth for my clientele at Glow. I also started my own business about 3 hours away from the Bay Area and considered it my baby Glow because again, I spent half of my month seeing clients at Glow in the Bay Area. I have built such a huge group of amazing clients over the 16 years I worked at Glow Skin and Body. In 2019 when my husband and I decided to move back to Portland I knew I would not be coming back to Glow Skin and Body again. I was so sad to leave my Glow girls, and my clients behind, but knew that their training, and my years of experience, left me with a lot to offer the Portland Area AND SOOOO

Glow Massage and Spaworks was born!

Although I am not a carbon copy of Glow Skin and Body, I am proud to have Glow stay in part of the name of my new studio!

I have spent most of my career specializing in therapeutic services and will now also be providing a relaxing spa experience for my clients, as well as results driven services. I’m so happy to be back on the West side of Portland and can’t wait to meet you all!
