About Me

Hi there! I am excited you are interested in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and hope we can meet in person soon. Here is a little bit about more myself:

Growing up south of Boston, I was always interested in the sciences. This led me to pursue a Biology degree at Harvard; but it was my experiences with medical research and patient care that first sparked my interest in healthcare. While living in California I decided to try acupuncture for my childhood asthma, and voila, my professional interests and personal experiences clicked together! I was fortunate to study Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for four years at the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (ACTCM) in San Francisco. Learning integrated acupuncture and herbal medicine while practicing hands-on in the clinic under my teachers' supervision provided an excellent basis for treating patients.

My family moved back to the east coast and took up residence in Stratham, NH. I am excited to bring the Traditional Chinese Medicine I was taught in California to help improve the health and well-being of my friends and neighbors on the Seacoast!
