Who We Are…

I’m a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, licensed massage therapist, and co-founder of AcuVibes, where I practice alongside my colleague Shareen Wilson. My work weaves together acupuncture, therapeutic massage, herbal medicine, and sound therapy — always with the goal of helping patients feel more balanced, resilient, and empowered in their healing journey.

My clinical focus is in orthopedics, facial rejuvenation, and fascia integrity, because I believe true health is reflected both in how we move and how we glow. I love supporting patients who are looking for natural, holistic solutions — while also respecting the value of integrating Western medicine when needed.

I received my MSTOM and Doctorate of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine (DACM) from Pacific College of Health and Science. My postgraduate training includes:

• Sports Medicine Acupuncture®
• 3rd International Gold Standard of Facial Acupuncture Certification with Mary Elizabeth Wakefield and MichelAngelo
• Facial lift massage training with Hadado Akademia Spa
• Microneedling certification with AcuMicro and TOMA
• Additional specialties in cupping, gua sha, and fascial release techniques

My philosophy is rooted in functional movement, balance, and body awareness. I want my patients not only to experience relief from pain or tension, but also to reconnect with their bodies in a way that fosters long-term resilience and vitality. Many describe our sessions as both grounding and transformative — a blend of clinical precision with a deeply restorative experience.

My own journey into Chinese medicine began early: I grew up in a household where food and herbs were used as medicine, guided by my mother’s wisdom. Later, after an injury from a car accident, I personally experienced how acupuncture could shift the body’s healing process in ways conventional medicine could not. That experience inspired me to dedicate my career to showing others that alternatives exist — and that healing is possible even when it feels out of reach.

Whether someone comes in for pain relief, facial rejuvenation, or to deepen their overall wellness, my mission is always the same: to help people feel more at home in their bodies, more proactive in their health, and more aligned in their daily lives.
