Tessa is a Vermont native who graduated with a B.A. in Psychology in 2016. Shortly after graduation, she served with AmeriCorps in Atlanta, Georgia, working with at-risk youth. During her time away, her grandmother was diagnosed with cancer. She was in a great deal of pain, and had a massage therapist who worked with her to help alleviate the pain. Seeing first-hand how beneficial massage was, and just how much it reduced her grandmother’s discomfort, inspired Tessa to pursue an education in massage therapy.

In 2019, shortly after graduating from the massage program at River Valley Community College, Tessa began her career at Deep Roots Massage. After a hiatus due to COVID, Tessa is so excited to return.

“I have always wanted to be in a profession where I am helping others. The field of massage is always and ever evolving, and there are always new things to learn. Deep Roots really fosters that growth. I hope to bring relaxation and serenity to my clients through touch.”

In her free time, Tessa enjoys spending time in nature with her husband and their mini-dachshund or curling up with a good book next to her cat.
