Interesting things about you and the business you are in?
Spa/Company Name: The Spa at Harrahs
Website: www.Caesars.com
How did you end up in the industry? I came out to Las Vegas to help run a Pain management clinic. The doctor fell and broke two vertebrae and was no longer practicing medicine. I never got the the chance to work there. I had a friend who worked at the spa and told me that Harrahs had a full time massage therpist opening. I applied and got the job because the managers thought that my sports medicine and rehab background could help the spa. I’ve been here for 14.5 years now and love it.
