Her journey began with an undergraduate degree in Human Services, where a transformative client interaction inspired her to pursue a path that integrates body and mind. This led her to the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine, where she earned both a Master’s and Doctorate of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. She shares this journey with her best friend and husband, raising an active 4 year-old together. As a family, they cherish time in nature, music, art, science, reading, cooking, and savoring good food— passions that enrich her holistic approach to life and healing.
