I was trained at Zhejiang Traditional Medical College and Nanjing Traditional Chinese Medical University in China. After I received my Chinese medical degree in 1985 and MS degree in 1988, I worked as an Assistant Professor and Professor at the Medical College of Wenzhou, P.R. of China. After I received my Ph.D from Kanazawa Medical University, Japan, I engaged in both high quality medical research and clinical work in traditional Chinese medicine. Upon completion of my degree, I decided to continue my research in pulmonary biology at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.

My ideal client is someone feeling stuck in cycles of dieting, food rules, or body distress, often alongside anxiety, trauma, or other mental health concerns. They may feel disconnected from their body, overwhelmed by food decisions, or exhausted by trying to “get it right.” They want relief from constant food noise and a more peaceful, sustainable relationship with eating and their body. They’re seeking compassionate, weight-neutral support that honors their lived experiences, supports healing at their own pace, and helps them nourish themselves in a way that truly fits their real life—not rigid rules or quick fixes.

I would love for clients to seek Acupuncture/Massage as a 1st response. So many see me as a last resort . When I should be the 1st they call. It makes me sad to think clients have surgery or use drugs to fix an issue I could have helped them with.

I promote healing from within. It's important to look for the underlying cause of your condition because addressing those issues will allow for a more permanent cure instead of the temporary suppression found with medications alone. Our bodies' have an innate healing power that's released given the right internal and external environment. Finding a diet and lifestyle specific to your individual needs is essential for engaging this healing potential. Sometimes, though, we must dive even deeper into your body's biochemistry to find answers.

This client is talkative, friendly, and eager to learn. They have diagnosed IBS and sought support to work through a low FODMAP plan with a dietitian. Symptoms are limiting daily activities and enjoyment of life, so relief would help them feel like themselves again. I enjoy gut health work because it’s a complex puzzle we solve together to create a new, lower-symptom baseline. They’re typically 20–40 years old and open to exploring a variety of tools.

In a 1995 Nutrition in Medical Science Class, I discovered that statistically, African Americans suffered disproportionately from many chronic diseases. I made it my goal in this life to discover a solution to alter the trajectory of the problem. I now help African-Americans develop a proper relationship with the food they eat by incorporating culture into the recipe of active living, glorious nutrition and wellness!

PLEASE note: I do not take insurance, but I do accept all credit cards. No one has the same nutritional needs. Therefore, I customize each nutrition program to fit your individual needs by working one-on-one with you as you strive to meet your personal nutrition and fitness goals. I believe the majority of nutrition or food related issues are behavioral in nature. Therefore, I work with you on identifying behaviors contributing to your eating problems and food-related issues. The plan I create with you will be specific for your needs and goals; you will succeed because the plan is yours, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
