I have enjoyed treating dogs and cats with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) since 2015. Growing up, I adored my family's cats. As an adult, I find it difficult to pass a dog on the street without stopping to greet them.

I have also been fascinated by Eastern cultures. I pursued this interest, in part, by studying taekwon-do for years, practicing qigong, and visiting Japan. Shortly after graduating with my BS in Medicinal Chemistry, I found that the holistic approach of acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine resonated with me more than other types of medicine. I received my Master of Science in TCM from the Pacific College of Health and Science in Chicago in 2008. I am a Licensed Acupuncturist in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and I am NCCAOM board-certified in Chinese Herbal Medicine. I am also certified in Canine and Feline CPR and First Aid.

When I am not treating pets, I treat humans and I enjoy yoga and spending time with my husband and daughter.
