Born and raised in Nebraska, I graduated from vet school at Iowa State University. Following graduation I headed west To southwest Utah where I heard about the likes of Linda Tellington Jones and Dr. Kerry Ridgway. I landed in Colorado after a stint in Montana and meeting Linda and Kerry there. I have practiced in Colorado for 27 years. I had always had an interest in acupuncture, but when it did so much for my own health I needed to offer it to my patients. From there I have been fascinated on how bodies can heal. I became acupuncture certified in 2002 and eventually obtained my Master’s in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine In 2019. Laser, herbal therapy, food therapy, craniosacral, Ttouch, ozone and now Surefoot are other therapies I incorporate in my practice.
