I love practicing acupuncture and feel honored to take part in the healing process of my patients. I have earned the degree of Master of Acupuncture from the Traditional Acupuncture Institute, I am a Diplomat of Acupuncture with the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine(NCCAOM), and I am a graduate of Loyola College. Years of experience at the National Institutes of Health doing research in cellular and molecular biology gave me an appreciation for the complexity and creativity of life. I regard the practice of acupuncture as an art form, harnessing the innate power of our body, mind, and spirit, to bring healing.
