I came to study Chinese Medicine because it helped me personally with my health. I graduated from the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine (PCOM) San Diego in 2009. While studying at PCOM, I was a patient and assistant in the private practice of Z'ev Rosenberg. This was my introduction to classical herbal formulas, and this classical approach is one that I strive to bring to my practice. During my last year at PCOM, I completed rotations with the digestive and pulmonary units at the Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Chengdu, China.

I am an herbalist at heart and enjoy working with patients on digestive complaints, chronic pain, and women's health related concerns. A proud graduate of her Graduate Mentorship Program, I've been studying with Sharon Weizenbaum since 2018 and attend yearly conferences and seminars. I use Classical Chinese Medicine diagnosis and herbal treatment with Traditional Chinese Medicine style acupuncture. Examinations include tongue, pulse and abdominal diagnosis. I am licensed in Maryland and California, and a Diplomate of Oriental Medicine, certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM).

I continue to be inspired and motivated by the medicine, my patients, and the learning process.I have been in private practice in Bethesda, Maryland since 2010 and live there with my partner and 2 children.
