Chinese Medicine is one of the great loves of my life. I truely enjoy taking care of my patients, and I look forward to going into the clinic to work every day. In my practice, I specialize in custom, individualized care and in building long term partnerships with my patients. My training enables me to treat most conditions, but I specialize in treating complicated conditions that often combine body pain/headaches with mental health/stress conditions.
My Background
I was born and raised in a small country town in Wisconsin with a younger brother and sister. In 2004, I graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Madison School of Medicine with a BS in Clinical Laboratory Science. I used my Laboratory Science degree from 2004 to 2010, working as a Medical Technologist in hospital laboratories in Wisconsin. I met many patients during my time in the laboratory, and I found that direct patient care was my favorite part of the job. It was also during that time I discovered Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. When I learned that Chinese Medicine treats both the root cause and symptoms of a condition while also being cost effective and very safe, I decided to study Acupuncture to learn more. I attended the top ranking Oregon College of Oriental Medicine (OCOM) in Portland, OR. It was during my time at the OCOM that I learned how to practice medicine in a way that is education based, honest, and caring. I believe that comprehensive, personalized care for every patient is the solution to the health care problems we face today. Since I started my practice in 2014, I strive to give high quality, personalized care to every patient, every day.
