I am an Oregon State Licensed Acupuncturist as overseen by the Oregon State Medical Board and nationally certified as a Diplomate in Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine through the National Certification Board for Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine (NCBAHM).

I am a Volunteer Health Provider with the Returning Veterans Project, a nonprofit organization that connects veterans, service members, and their military families with free, confidential mental and physical health services.

I recently began training to become a Somatic Trauma Therapies Practitioner through The Embody Lab.

I earned my Master of Science degree from the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM), graduating with highest honors after completing four years of study in classical Chinese medicine. My education at NUNM included extensive exploration of anatomy, physiology, and pathology (all from both a western and Chinese medical perspective), acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, shiatsu, qigong, and nutrition. 

While in school, I completed a year-long mentorship with Brandt Stickley, LAc, which involved exploring the work of Dr. John H.F. Shen and Dr. Leon Hammer, including extensive study of pulse diagnosis and Chinese medical psychology based on Dr. Hammer’s Dragon Rises Red Bird Flies. 

In addition, I completed two years of herbal training with world-renowned scholar of Chinese medicine and herbal therapy, Heiner Fruehauf PhD, LAc, founder of the Classical Chinese Medicine program from which I graduated at NUNM, the Hai Shan Center, and Classical Pearls Herbal Formulas.  

Since then, my continuing education has focused on the use and efficacy of acupuncture and other somatic therapies in areas including: trauma relief and recovery; chronic pain management; and women’s health. 

When I’m not studying or practicing Chinese medicine

I love a good trail run in the rain, sharing meals with friends, dreaming up my next fly fishing or camping adventure, getting lost in a good book, and practicing yoga and Pilates.
