After graduating from National University of Health Sciences (IL) as a Doctor of Naturopathic Medicine in 2011, I completed a residency in Seattle, WA, which focused on infectious disease and Autism Spectrum Disorder.  While there, I also served as a volunteer physician at an LGBTQIA homeless shelter, acting as a primary care physician for both pediatric and adult patients. 

Fast forward to 2015, when everything in my life changed. I relocated to a state that didn't license naturopathic doctors, and, disenchanted with the idea of practicing in an unregulated jurisdiction, I decided instead to dive headlong into another passion of mine: nonprofit work. I was fortunate enough to complete a term of AmeriCorps VISTA service in 2016, and because of this total immersion into the many facets of public health, have become heavily invested in the field of healthcare as a platform for social change.

​Currently, you'll find me wearing several different hats on any given day: serving on the Board of Directors of the Iowa Association of Naturopathic Doctors, a nonprofit organization working to improve access to integrative healthcare within the state, running business and administration of the Connecticut Naturopathic Physicians Association, managing smaller consulting projects in my free time, and maintaining a small naturopathic private practice.

It's a busy life, and an awesome one. I'm always looking for new and exciting ways to shine a spotlight on naturopathic medicine, so if you've got an idea for a wicked awesome project in mind, let's chat!
