I am licensed in both acupuncture and massage therapy in the state of Illinois and have more than 15 years of experience in therapeutic massage. I graduated with a master's degree in acupuncture from the Midwest College of Oriental Medicine in 2023. As a licensed massage therapist, my fascination with energetic body system medicine began in 2011 when I had the good fortune of discovering and studying Medical Qigong at the International College of Medical Qigong in California. That's when I realized that the healing systems of ancient Chinese medicine were the most profound. This inspired me to study various other bodywork modalities like Sports massage, Reflexology, Zen Shiatsu, Craniosacral therapy, and eventually Acupuncture.

My passion for acupuncture is driven by continuous curiosity in learning and investigating new methods and techniques that ultimately result in fulfilling satisfaction by being able to help others.
