About Me
After growing up in central Vermont, I moved out to Montana to do trail work for the Forest Service out of Livingston and Paradise Valley. After four years there I was thrown from a horse and suffered a low back injury, which put me out of work and desperately seeking to recover both my health and my livelihood. I saw an acupuncturist who helped me through my recovery and taught me the basics of Chinese medicine. From there I was hooked.
​
I'm so excited to be back in Montana after living in the Bay Area for eight years to attend school and start gaining experience. It is such a huge privilege to practice Chinese medicine, and I am so thankful for what it has given to me and my patients.
