A Little Bit About Me.

This is My Story.

My personal jour for this work began after a severe flare of Ulcerative Colitis. I was told medication was my only option and warned that I might have difficulty conceiving or maintaining a pregnancy. When the medication failed and I was hospitalized for a ruptured ovarian cyst, I felt frustrated, angry, and completely disconnected from my body. I turned to functional medicine, worked with a practitioner to find the root cause, and began to heal. After years of focusing on my gut and hormone health, I not only restored my well-being but also gave birth to a healthy baby girl. Later, I experienced a miscarriage, which gave me even more compassion for the women and couples I now support. I understand the grief, the drive to know why, and the emotional toll of being told everything looks normal when nothing feels right.

My training includes a bachelor’s degree in biomedical science from Western Michigan University and a Doctorate of Chiropractic from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Port Orange, Florida. I completed post-doctoral education through the Council on Diagnosis and Internal Disorders and hold a diplomate as a Board Certified Chiropractic Internist (DABCI). I am also board eligible for my Diplomate with the American Clinical Board of Nutrition (DACBN). Prior to launching my own practice, I served as the Clinical Director of Women’s Health at Gateway Natural Medicine, where I worked extensively with infertility and hormone-related cases.

Today, I continue to support patients in private practice while also teaching other practitioners. I am currently a lecturer for the DABCI program and have taught additional courses on interpreting lab results, functional testing, and preconception nutrition.
