Master's Degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, Licensed Acupuncturist in Colorado and have been in practice for 20 years. I specialize in treating pain, sports injury, and post-op rehabilitation. Acupuncture can treat many disorders, but my specialties are what I see the most and have had the most success treating. For the last 11 years, I have been treating athletes at CSU-Pueblo including the football, baseball, soccer, basketball, cheerleading, and golf teams.

As a Board Certified Clinical Nutritionist focused on holistic care, I help patients achieve lasting results by addressing the root causes of their health concerns. Through a comprehensive 80-marker blood test—which I co-developed with Quest Diagnostics—I identify key issues such as nutrient deficiencies, toxic exposures, hormonal imbalances, and immune and neurological deficits. This personalized approach allows us to tackle stress, lifestyle factors, and overall wellness from the inside out. I provide real solutions to real health problems for those seeking a natural, sustainable approach to health.
