April Employee Spotlight: Mattie

What is your role? 

My role is a guest coordinator. I take care of guests as they come in and out of the studio. I recently became a trainee as well, assisting in the onboarding process. 

How long have you been with Massage Studio?

I have been with Massage Studio for 7 months. 

What made you choose Massage Studio? 

I chose Massage Studio because it's a great small business that is owned and run by women. I knew I wanted to be a part of the team when I saw how accepting everyone was during my interview. 

How does the Massage Studio team support you?

The Massage Studio team supports me by listening to my needs, and communicating what they need from me. Teamwork is also very important to us. If I need help there is always someone around to assist me.

What’s your favorite part of your job? 

My favorite part of the job is forming relationships with the guests who come in regularly, as well as the relationships I have formed with my coworkers. We have a great community at Massage Studio. 

Describe your favorite Massage Studio memory. 

My favorite memory at Massage Studio is our Thanksgiving potluck. Everyone seemed so happy, and people brought in great food. My second favorite memory is when I was closing with Karla and we got scared over a frog we saw outside. Neither one of us wanted to walk past it, and we couldn't stop laughing.

What self-care techniques have you learned since working at Massage Studio?

I have learned how healing massage is for my mind and body. I already have my next appointment booked. 

What do you like to do outside of work?

Outside of work, I like to read, hike, and bake.
