She later traveled to Duke Integrative Medicine in North Carolina in 2019 to become a National Board-Certified Health and Wellness Coach so she could help educate her patients on lifestyle changes that promote healing and reduce pain.

She specializes in orthopedics, chronic and recurring pain, vestibular dysfunction (including treatment of dizziness and vertigo), neck and back pain, and complex patients with multiple medical conditions. In her free time, she plays flute with Mira Costa College Symphony Orchestra, is an accomplished singer in community theater, and loves to learn. Her motto is “Yes you can…and I’ll help you get there.”
