About My Practice: My practice focuses and educates the patient on the cause of pain, stiffness and dysfunction of the body. I work with the nervous system. I fix misalignments of the spinal vertebrae that impinge on the spinal nerves, which allows the body to restore back to health and reach its full potential.
About me: I graduated from the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic in 2017 and moved to San Diego in 2019. I found my passion helping people bring their health back to normal. When I am not practicing in the office I find exciting ways to stay active, including bike riding, hiking and surfing. I feel so blessed to live here in San Diego, being able to relax in the mountains or down at the beach.
