Transforming Lives Through Naturopathic Wisdom and Compassion

About me

"
As a lifelong learner with an insatiable curiosity about the world and a passion for making a positive impact, I embarked on a transformative journey that led me to discover my true calling in holistic medicine. My early fascination with science and technology, which earned me a Bachelor's degree in Materials Science and Engineering from UC Berkeley, gradually evolved into a deep desire to work directly with people and contribute to their well-being.

Growing up in a family that embraced Chinese herbs for treating common ailments, I was naturally drawn to the wisdom of traditional medicine. This realization sparked my search for a person-centered, health-focused approach that seamlessly integrated natural therapies with modern science. The field of Naturopathic Medicine emerged as the perfect amalgamation of these elements, leading me to pursue a 6-year program at the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM), where I earned two degrees: Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine (ND) and Doctor of Science in Oriental Medicine (DSOM).

Currently, I am working with the nonprofit Whole Systems Healthcare, dedicated to building a healthcare system that prioritizes health over disease. When I'm not helping patients, you can find me indulging in reading, writing, cooking, biking, exploring nature, and fostering a sense of community.
