What is your practice philosophy? My practice philosophy is to approach healthcare from a whole-person perspective (mind / body / spirit) to better understanding a person’s needs/goals and their personal wellness story. People don’t always fix into boxes and it’s important to adapt to each individuals personal needs.
What are you passionate about? And why? Reproductive healthcare and supporting men and women through their reproductive journeys.
If I wasn’t a provider, I would be a: My childhood dream was to be a fiction writer, so I would have become a writer.
Why did you become a provider? When did you know this was the career for you? I knew I wanted to work in the medical field, but it took me a few years to determine which path was a fit for me. I discovered acupuncture through personal experience and knew it was something I wanted to do.
Something I have learned from my patients is: The value of patience, listening, and perseverance through adversity.
One of the challenges of this career that I enjoy is (and why): Problem-solving from a multi-system approach. Many people who seek out acupuncture do so because they have complicated conditions that require a unique treatment approach. I enjoy bringing a different perspective to the healthcare journey of my patients.
My personal health goal is: Hike all 63 national parks!
What is the best thing you’ve done for your health or the best health advice you’ve received? Eat real food! What we choose to eat is the easiest way to promote good health and often times the littlest changes make the biggest impact on our health.
What are you most proud of? Watching my son grow from a wonderful little boy into an amazing adult.
