I studied acupuncture and herbal medicine at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in New York City, receiving comprehensive training in both Eastern and Western medical systems. My studies covered a wide range of specialties, including pediatrics, orthopedics, dermatology, oncology, geriatrics, urology, and gynecology. I also had the privilege of learning from experienced practitioners outside of the classroom, which expanded my skills in Japanese acupuncture, shiatsu, and sports-focused techniques.

My clinical focus includes orthopedics, anxiety, stress, digestive issues, insomnia, migraines, menstrual and genitourinary disorders, low immunity, asthma, and night sweats. I use an integrative treatment approach that draws from Traditional Chinese Medicine, including herbal therapy, nutritional and lifestyle counseling, applied kinesiology and muscle testing, trigger point therapy, and manual techniques like tui na.

In addition to my training in Traditional Chinese Medicine, my practice includes functional medicine, which supports a systems-based, integrative approach to care.
