I am a board certified acupuncturist by the NCCAOM and a licensed acupuncturist by the Louisiana State Medical Board. I completed my acupuncture training in Tucson, AZ and there I received my Masters of Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine. I enjoy pulling from various theories of acupuncture in my treatments, namely Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), SAAM Korean acupuncture, Japanese Meridian theory, and Five Elements acupuncture. I have also studied with Mary Elizabeth Wakefield to incorporate constitutional facial acupuncture into my practice. In addition to the single-use, sterile acupuncture needles used in treatments, I like to use cupping, gua sha, tuina, and herbal or dietary recommendations to further support the goals of the treatment.
I enjoy different settings of practice and feel passionate about making Chinese Medicine widely available. I also practice at the People’s Community Acupuncture Collective NOLA, and have recently developed a free auricular clinic at the downtown De Paul Community Health Center.
My goal is to restore balance and remedy any discomfort, whether it be physical or emotional. As an acupuncturist, I hope to empower and educate my patients in order to help them be the most radiant versions of themselves.
