The Person
Behind KinEquis
I feel fortunate to do work that lets me stay curious, build meaningful relationships, and help people better understand and move within their bodies.
No two people arrive with the same history, needs, or goals—and that’s one of the things I value most about this work. Every person brings something different to the treatment room, and I consider it a privilege to be trusted with their care.
Years of movement, injuries, habits, experiences, and adaptations shape the body each person lives in today. I never get tired of learning how those pieces relate—or discovering another perspective that might help someone move with greater ease.
That curiosity has shaped both the way I practice and the education I continue to pursue. Structural Integration became a natural extension of that interest, offering another way to explore the relationships between fascia, movement, structure, and the body as a whole.
Working with both people and horses only deepens that curiosity. Each asks me to observe, listen, and adapt in a slightly different way.
The more I learn, the more I realize there’s always something new to discover. Every client teaches me something. Every course offers another perspective. Every question gives me another reason to keep learning.
What Continues to Inspire Me
I've always loved solving puzzles. The body just happens to be the most fascinating one I've found.

Ready to Begin?
When I’m not in the treatment room, you’ll usually find me spending time with my son, working with horses, reading, or following whatever subject has caught my curiosity lately.
Those parts of my life keep me curious and grounded—and continually remind me why I chose this work.
If my approach feels like a good fit for what you’re looking for, I’d be glad to work with you.
