I am a licensed acupuncturist with professional interests in integrative medicine, anxiety and depression, alternatives to pain relief and evidence-based acupuncture modalities.
The best part of my patient visit is: educating my patients' about health and wellness from different perspectives. I enjoy drawing connections and common threads for my patients.
I became a provider to: follow my passion for helping others, expand my knowledge and give back to the community.
Practice philosophy: The body and mind are intrinsically connected. True healthcare must take all aspects of a person into account.
