ABOUT ME

I am a lover of all things that represent joy. Since I remember being me, all I have ever wanted to do is help people. At each stage of my life, I have found a way to volunteer, contribute, share, and embrace opportunities that allow me to do that. I firmly believe that I am not  “just me” when I am giving to others. I am only channeling through my body, words and actions that are much bigger than me. Therefore, this passion to help others is truly driven from a desire to fulfill that mission that I believe I have in this world.

I am a Doctor of Oriental Medicine and a Licensed Acupuncturist by The Texas Medical Board. I have a bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineering, which led me to work for a few years in the Energy Industry. Great experience, nonetheless, I didn’t feel that it was my calling and I decided to follow my passion for healthcare. Thus far, I have enriched my experience with cosmetic acupuncture and pulse diagnosis with Dr. Martha Lucas, and I studied Dr. Tan’s balance method under Dr. Eileen Han. Even though I am not currently practicing reiki, it was my fist introduction to the power of guiding energy. Additionally, I am very interested in functional medicine, and completed The Adapt Practitioner Functional Medicine Program under Chris Kresser.

I love acupuncture, conventional and herbal supplements, and conscious choices. My main areas of interest include general women wellness, emotional health and stress management, fertility, and pre and post-partum care.

I will humbly be a student for the rest of my life. My biggest teachers are my kids, but on the professional arena, my patients have been my inspiration to further my knowledge and better serve them.  I am not taking patients for acupuncture at the moment, but please check out my health recommendations and feel free to send me an email with any questions.

To help you help yourself! To guide you through a journey of wellness and help your body be in optimal balance.  I will evaluate you in a holistic manner, recommend a treatment plan, dietary modifications, and lifestyle changes that will make you feel better, happier, and more in tune with your body.  With compassion, keen knowledge, and very much individualized attention, I will be your ally to self-discovery and health.

If I am not the one to better serve you in a specific circumstance, I will let you know.  I am glad you are here, and I look forward to meeting you in person!

Best in health,
