Health is a big factor when it comes to the work I do. Having sickle cell disease has allowed me to conquer my health goals and inturn has allowed me the opportunity to help others achieve theirs. My goal is to empower the black community when it comes to their health goals. Many of us have never taken the time to consider our health or even the benefits of massage therapy; my career has opened my eyes to the change that needs to be brought to the black community.
