From a young age, I've been drawn to the wonders of science and medicine.  After earning my Bachelor of Science in Biology, I began working as a technician in various medical laboratories and later as a project manager in clinical trials. While I built a great respect for Western sciences, I never felt as fortunate until I found my calling in Eastern medicine.
 
Over twenty years ago, I experienced the transformative power of acupuncture firsthand, after receiving several helpful acupuncture treatments for an unresolved pain in my leg. This sparked a strong curiosity in me to learn this mysterious discipline.
 
With the support of my husband and family, I decided to further pursue my education in the healing arts of Asian medicine and became an acupuncturist in 2006. I then established an office in Toluca Lake, CA, and have since been certified in Functional Medicine in 2019.
 
Due to life’s circumstances, and much to my delight, my husband and I moved to the lovely community in Pine Mountain Club, CA in 2020, where I launched my second office, “Alternative Health Center”.  I relocated my office in Toluca Lake in December of 2024 and merged it with my practice in Pine Mountain Club to be able to focus on one office and to spend more time with my family.
​
I am passionate about helping my clients achieve optimal health and wellness through the powers of Eastern and Western medicine. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, stress, or other health issues, I'm here to guide you on your journey to a happier and healthier life. 
 
In modern societies, we are conditioned to equate our bodies to machines.  But I prefer to compare the human body to a garden.  And for a garden to flourish, we must take the time to nourish its roots and foundation in order to rejuvenate and sustain good essence.

I am also committed to my own health by keeping up with my hobbies, like reading, hiking, road biking, Qi gong and yoga.
