About Me

Born to a family of Western medicine doctors, I grew up immersed in the world of modern healthcare. However, driven by a deep curiosity about different healing traditions, I made a life-changing decision at the age of 19: I moved to China to study Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). What began as an exploration soon became a lifelong calling.

I am one of the few people in the world who has completed the full academic path of Chinese medicine in China, earning a Bachelor’s, Master’s, and Doctorate in Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture. I graduated from the prestigious Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, one of China’s top institutions in the field. During my studies, I had the rare opportunity to become a direct student of Professor Wang Jingui, the Director of the First Teaching Hospital affiliated with the university and one of the most respected TCM doctors in China today.

For years, I dedicated myself to deeply understanding the roots, theory, and clinical applications of Chinese medicine. I have spent countless hours researching how to bridge the wisdom of Chinese medicine with the needs and language of the Western world, aiming to make this ancient system accessible and practical for a global audience.

My clinical passion lies in treating neurological conditions and complex, hard-to-treat cases, where I combine classical Chinese medicine with modern approaches to offer integrative, results-driven care.

As an educator, I have had the privilege of teaching and lecturing in Canada, Chile, Brazil, Vietnam, and at numerous international conferences. I believe in the power of education to spread the healing potential of TCM and to train the next generation of practitioners who can continue to carry this legacy forward.

My Philosophy

My teaching philosophy is rooted in the belief that Traditional Chinese Medicine should be transmitted in its most authentic form—without dilution or oversimplification. As someone who studied and practiced Chinese medicine entirely in China, in the Chinese language, I aim to bring my students a direct connection to the source. I integrate the wisdom of the classical texts with modern clinical research and scientific understanding, creating courses that are both deeply rooted in tradition and highly practical. My goal is not just to teach formulas or techniques, but to help students think like true TCM doctors—able to understand, analyze, and apply classical principles to real-world clinical cases. I believe that when students engage with Chinese medicine in this way, they gain not only knowledge, but also confidence and clinical insight that lasts a lifetime.
