I combine health education with functional, clinical, and public health expertise to provide a complete, evidence based approach.
My background includes:
- 8+ years of clinical experience as an allied health professional across: primary care, integrated medicine, occupational health, orthopedics, rheumatology, immunology, chronic care management, functional health, paramedical examining, biometric screening, and health and wellness coaching
- Public health service as a contact tracer for 16 months, personally serving over 12,000 individuals through symptom tracking and population level pattern recognition, assessing social determinants of health, vaccine education and preparation, identification of outbreaks and reinfections through cycle threshold observation, and providing clear communication and psychological first aid during uncertainty and fear
- Medical education experience, teaching anatomy, physiology, hematology, phlebotomy, EKG, centrifuge, injections, point of care testing, emergency preparedness, ACLS/BLS, and health literacy for diverse learners
- Language and accessibility training through work as a sign language interpreter, shaping my ability to explain complex physiology with precision, patience, and respect for processing differences.
- Motivational Interviewing and positive psychology grounded in evocation, autonomy support, and collaborative SMART goal setting.
I observed the same pattern repeatedly across thousands of individuals and multiple systems.
People struggle not because they are noncompliant. They struggle because they were never taught how their bodies work.
That observation is the foundation of my work today.
