Member of FL State Oriental Medicine Association
QUALIFICATIONS
My training in Oriental medicine diagnosis and treatment comes from an extensive apprenticeship under a Traditional Chinese Master Physician, rooted in ancient medical wisdom. Although the school where I studied—the Chou School of Acupuncture—has since closed, my Master continues to teach and influence practitioners in the fields of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. The program emphasized both acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, ensuring that every student developed a comprehensive skill set to achieve the best outcomes for patients.
My background also includes rigorous discipline and mental fortitude shaped by my service in the Taiwanese military. This experience strengthened my ability to think logically, act decisively, and design effective treatment plans tailored to each patient’s needs.
Driven by a desire to share the profound benefits of Traditional Chinese Medicine with people in the United States, I became licensed by the Florida Board of Acupuncture. Today, I am a focused physician with broad clinical experience in internal medicine and a deep commitment to guiding patients toward sustained well-being. I also continue to deliver hands-on training in China, helping professionals build skills and confidence.

“ Support Your Body’s Natural Balance and Long-Term Wellness”
Traditional Chinese Medicine starts from a simple premise: when the body is in balance, it tends to function more harmoniously. In TCM theory, factors such as poor sleep, ongoing stress, dietary habits, aging, and emotional challenges may contribute to patterns of imbalance that are reflected in how a person feels. My work is to help you better understand those patterns and develop an individualized approach to supporting your health and long-term wellness.
I am licensed by the Florida Board of Acupuncture in 2023 to practice acupuncture and Oriental medicine, and I hold national board certification from the NCBAHM (the National Certification Board for Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, formerly the NCCAOM before its January 2026 rebrand). I earned my Master of Science in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine through the program founded at the American Academy of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Minnesota, now operated by the American Academy of Health and Wellness.
My clinical training includes a range of TCM modalities, including acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, moxibustion, gua sha (a scraping technique), cupping, and dietary and lifestyle guidance informed by TCM principles. Because each patient presents with a unique health history and pattern of symptoms, treatment recommendations are individualized rather than based on a fixed protocol.
One of my children experienced a serious childhood illness. During that time, our family sought care from TCM practitioners, and the experience inspired me to learn more about this approach to health and wellness. Later in my own life, I also turned to TCM as part of my personal wellness journey. These experiences led me to pursue a degree in acupuncture and Oriental medicine.
I am passionate about supporting patients in their health and wellness journeys. I enjoy working with individuals facing a variety of concerns and helping them pursue their personal wellness goals so they can spend more time enjoying life with their families. I am grateful for the opportunity to share my knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine with my patients.
If you’ve never tried acupuncture or TCM before, my goal is to make the first visit feel less like an unfamiliar ritual and more like a careful conversation — about how you’ve been feeling, what your body might be telling you, and how we can work together to give it the support it needs.
