I have been a wanderer, a creative, and a spiritual seeker for my entire life. I earned my Masters of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2012. While running a successful Women’s Health clinic in Denver, I felt a higher calling to study the psychospiritual lineage of Classical 5 Element Acupuncture and became a student of renowned practitioners Neil Gumenick and Mary McCullough at the Institute for Classical Five Element Acupuncture in Santa Monica, California. Shortly thereafter, I broadened my knowledge base with a certification in Functional Medicine.
In addition to my work as an acupuncturist and herbalist, I have studied multiple lineages of Eastern philosophy, therapeutic breathwork, and tantric tradition. These studies have greatly informed my work in conscious relating, somatic healing, and sacred sexuality. I am a devotee of Tibetan Buddhism and 12-Step Work and have had the honor of being mentored by Kendra Cunov, Stan Grof, Tressa Vasquez, John Wineland, Varian Brandon, Toku McCree, and many others. In the last six years, I have also enjoyed working as a community coach in Kendra Cunov’s No Man Diet Program and serving as a ceremonialist locally in Colorado.
When I am not flowing in my medicine, you can find me wandering in the woods with my dog, Piper, tending to my dahlia garden and gasping at sunsets. I am an avid reader, meditator, and writer, and I feel most myself when traveling, dancing to live music, and laughing with my friends.
