I am a licensed acupuncturist in Hawaii & California and board certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM).  I have been a faculty member at the Traditional Chinese Medical College of Hawaii since 2004, teaching both in the classroom and supervising in the school clinic.  In 2009, I was appointed to the Medical Staff of North Hawaii Community Hospital with privileges in Acupuncture.

I received my graduate degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine from Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in San Diego. This four year comprehensive graduate program encompassed Western and Eastern medical studies. I continue my education yearly with continuing education seminars and self-studies.

My private practice is located in Waikoloa Village where I work with community members and vacationers on the Big Island.
