My Story
I grew up with the knowledge that I wanted to be a doctor, to serve and heal others. While studying pre-med at UC Berkeley in California I discovered Traditional Chinese Medicine through a Medical Anthropology class. I was intrigued, but didn't try it for myself until I had a real need. After a serious accident my senior year I suffered from headaches, vertigo, and the abrupt loss of my sense of smell. But then when I went to see an acupuncturist, within a few treatments the headaches and dizziness were gone and I slowly started regaining my sense of smell. After this amazing recovery I knew that Traditional Chinese Medicine was the medicine I should be practicing.
I completed a masters program at the American Institute of Alternative Medicine in Columbus, Ohio in 2012. Afterwards I spent a summer interning at the Beijing Integrated Hospital of Western Medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine in Beijing, China before returning to Columbus to work in private practice for four years. I am now located in Westchester County, NY in Tarrytown where I am nationally certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) as well as being professionally licensed by the New York State Educational Board.
I strongly believe in the efficacy of Acupuncture and urge prospective patients to see for themselves. Not only have I experienced the results first-hand as a patient, but also have seen countless patients of mine report less pain, fewer headaches, better sleep, improved stress and mood, and even pregnancy after trying for years unsuccessfully!
