I am an acupuncturist devoted to creating safe, inclusive, caring spaces where clients can participate in their healing and growth.

My Treatment Approach

As a licensed Five-Element acupuncturist, I value building trust with clients as people. I take the time to listen before tailoring treatments to an individual’s needs. My training involves closely observing nature and its rhythms, and I bring that perspective to learning about the complexity within each person and their inner cycles of balance.

The journey toward health is often transformative. The interactions between mind, body, and emotions create unique conditions that shape the process of becoming. I view my work as a service that can offer an experience of change, whether for better health or for something deeper, that hopefully inspires someone to be more curious about what it means to take care of themselves. Within the US acupuncture field, I strive to reimagine American Chinese medicine as a service offering holistic, individualized, and accessible healthcare, especially to those it underserves and/or marginalizes.

Beyond Acupuncture

I grew up tasting Macau-style-Cantonese food and Vietnamese food via the Chinese diaspora. Outside of practicing, you can find me drawing or scouring bookstores for Asian American poetry.
