Previously, I received a BA degree in Interdisciplinary Studies: The Science and Art of Healing, from the University of Maryland Baltimore County. I have also trained at the International Institute of Medical Qi Gong in Pacific Grove, California. I am a licensed acupuncturist in the state of Maryland, a Diplomate in Acupuncture as certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and an active member of the Bowie Crofton Holistic Community.
