Tell us about yourself
When I first moved to Savannah, Georgia, in 2014, I fell in love with this city. I did some research and noticed there wasn't a mobile massage company here. In 2016, I created Balance Mobile Massage to provide massages to locals and tourists. My business evolved, and I thought, why not provide on-demand mobile spa treatments too? Balance Mobile Spa was created, and now we offer massages, facials, body treatments, and nail treatments. We have helped hotels, especially with our business hours. Day spas normally close at p.m., but.m., but we until open until ten p.m.in love this city.

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?
Making myself known in this city, letting everyone know what my business is and what we can provide. You have to put yourself out there and network. It has opened many doors for me as a businesswoman, and I've met many amazing people here in Savannah.
What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?
Being a business owner, you will have many challenges. You wear many hats in your business, and you keep learning new things. The thing is to never give up on your dream, even when things get hard. You need to set boundaries for yourself, reach out for help when needed, and be optimistic.
