I trained at Northwest Institute of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (Seattle; M.Ac., 2001; M.T.C.M., 2003), and have been in private practice since 2001. My areas of special interest are: pyschiatric/psychological/psycho-spiritual concerns; HIV/AIDS; fine-tuning for elite athletes; and treating patients struggling with obesity and weight issues. I use a wide range of treatment approaches, from acupuncture and related physical medicine, to Classical Chinese herbal medicine, to Qi Gong. In addition to my acupuncture and herbal practice, I am an assistant coach with Indiana University/Indiana Diving, one of the premier diving programs in the US. I continue to train and compete in Masters diving.
