General Info

I started my career in environmental consulting after obtaining Bachelor of Science and Master of Science degrees. It was a rewarding career with a focus on assessing and remediating contaminated properties. It was during this time that I came to have an appreciation for the health effects of environmental toxins on our bodies. I had always been interested in nutrition as a form of medicine (Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine, said “let foods be your medicine and medicine be your foods”) as well as other forms of alternative healing. I then earned my Naturopathic Doctorate, with honors, from the National University of Natural Medicine (NUNM) in Portland, Oregon. NUNM is one of only four nationally accredited four-year schools of naturopathic medicine in the United States.
