About Karma Raad
Karma Raad, LMT, MPA
Originally from New Jersey, I relocated to Seattle, WA where I got my massage therapy education and license. I've been practicing massage therapy for over 22 years in addition to my full-time career as a tech project manager. I grew up in the healthcare industry, managing my mother's medical practice and moving on to clinical research at a major New York cancer hospital. I have a Master's degree in Healthcare Administration from New York University, where I aspired to affect policy change for the underserved. Twists and turns in my career led me down the technology path, and I am currently a product marketing consultant with the luxury of working remotely.
I live in the Seattle area with my husband, teenage son, and three dogs. When I'm not working at my day job, I'm enjoying evenings and weekends working with my cherished massage and coaching clients. We spend much of our free time RV camping and kayaking in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
Above all, I'm just like you. My personal wellness journey is full of challenges and sometimes overwhelming. Experience has given me wisdom, but not magic. As they say, anything worth having will never come easy. My goal is to be your partner on this journey, where I can provide you with the support of my knowledge and experience, and we can step along this trail together. -Karma
