History
My interest in Chinese medicine began while studying Tai Chi and Kung Fu at the Hung Tao Choy Mei Academy in Washington, DC. I received my Master of Acupuncture from the Tai Sophia Institute for the Healing Arts, now called Maryland University of Integrative Health, the oldest accredited acupuncture program in the United States. I continued my study of Chinese medicine at Tai Sophia where I completed an accredited program in Chinese Herbal Medicine. Currently I am adjunct faculty at MUIH where I supervise student practitioners. I am licensed by the Maryland State Board of Acupuncture and practice at The Spectrum Center for Natural Medicine in downtown Silver Spring.
