“I have lived through the struggles of a digestive disorder, and I feel compassion for those who do not know where to turn or how to move forward positively. Oriental medicine has been one of the greatest gifts of my life, and I wish to share it with those who are open to exploring its potential, as well as their own.”

“Becoming a better bridge means engaging with the thoughts and cultures of both the Western world and Far East Asia. My teachers have come from both, my home is also a blend of East and West, and I have family in both cultures. This helps me to have an authentic understanding and see the profound value in both sides.”
