I am an acupuncturist, herbal medicine specialist, and massage therapist with nearly 20 years of experience in the fields of complementary and alternative healthcare. I graduated from the Master and Doctoral programs in Traditional and Classical Chinese Medicine at the Academy of Chinese Culture and Health Sciences (ACCHS), where I specialized in medical theory and herbal formulation. I served as the Dean of Programs and Clinic Director at ACCHS, where I continue to teach courses on Chinese medical theory, classical Chinese philosophy, and ancient calendrical sciences.
