I’ve helped countless women transform their fertility, hormones, and overall vitality through Traditional Chinese Medicine, especially in TCM Gynecology and Reproductive Health.  But along the way, I realized something essential: real healing has to start at the root.

Over the past 15 years, I’ve dedicated my work to women’s health supporting fertility, PCOS, endometriosis, thyroid dysfunction, and autoimmune disorders through an integrative, root-cause approach.  My passion is not just treating symptoms, but helping women reclaim their vitality, balance their hormones, and finally feel like themselves again.  I believe deeply in education, empowerment, and giving women the tools they need to thrive at every stage of life.

Licensed as a Primary Care Provider in CA, I’m also certified by the California Acupuncture Board and the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) as an Acupuncturist and Herbalist.

I’ve always believed that healing begins with being truly seen and heard.  That belief became non-negotiable after the difficult journey through my own health challenges and experiencing firsthand how life-changing integrative, functional, and Traditional Chinese Medicine can be.  My commitment to comprehensive care is deeply personal because before I became a doctor, I was a patient searching for answers that conventional medicine couldn’t give to me.

My “aha” moment came when I discovered the transformational power of lifestyle medicine in my own healing.  That experience redirected the course of my life.  I left my former career, enrolled in Chinese Medicine school, and immersed myself in the worlds of both Eastern and Western nutrition, mind-body medicine, and the science of how our environment, toxic exposures, and even epigenetics influence our health.
I continued my studies with advanced training in pediatrics, thyroid and brain health, not just for academic knowledge, but because I needed it for myself and those who came to me for care.  Through that journey, I came to trust something I now teach every patient: your body is designed to heal when you give it the right support.

With more than 15 years of experience in Integrative Women’s Health and autoimmune care, I’ve dedicated my life to helping women heal deeply and reclaim their vitality, guiding them toward whole-body healing, hormonal balance, and true transformation.

At Red Lotus Wellness Center, inclusivity is at the heart of our mission.  Whether you’re struggling with low ovarian reserve, PCOS, irregular cycles, thyroid issues, higher BMI, or you’re part of the LGBTQIA+ community, you belong here.
Regardless of your background, relationship status, or personal path to parenthood, my team and I provide personalized, compassionate care to support you through natural conception, IVF/IUI, egg donation, surrogacy, or wherever your fertility journey leads.  If you have the desire to grow your family, we are here to walk alongside you.

For more than six years, I’ve also had the privilege of helping build and refine the acupuncture department at Vista Community Clinic’s Vale Terrace site.  The demand for care grew rapidly because patients were experiencing meaningful, whole-person healing, so much so that appointments booked out up to five weeks in advance.  That experience reaffirmed my commitment to accessible, integrative, and culturally sensitive care.

Today, at Red Lotus Wellness Center, my team and I are honored to help you uncover the root cause of your symptoms, restore your health, and guide you toward a life of vitality, clarity, and balance.  Your healing is our mission and your transformation is absolutely possible.

Outside the clinic, you’ll usually find me tending to my community garden plot, walking along the beach, or dancing the night away somewhere fun.  I love cooking vibrant ethnic dishes, enjoying good wine with great friends, and yes… occasionally treating myself to a gluten-free vegan lemon cupcake.
