Manager of Department of Medicine, Licensed Acupuncturist and Registered Nurse

Early on, I felt a pull of forces between my artistic abilities and my healing abilities. Initially, I became a nurse and worked in one of the most fast paced hospitals in Oregon. Here, I worked alongside others in many spectrums of life assisting in birth, end of life care, internal medicine, and psychiatry. I then found more traditional modalities of healing and became fascinated with the body's innate intelligence to heal, which led me to get a master's degree in acupuncture and Chinese medicine. Here, I found that I enjoyed women's health, chronic pain, trauma, mental wellness, and addictions. In recent years I have been building community relationships within the city of Portland Oregon, practicing acupuncture at Quest Center for Integrative Health, and have been teaching as a professor within the School of Nursing and Integrative Health and Wellness departments at the University of Portland. I consider myself to be a bridge between both eastern and western philosophies of medicine and healing.
