I come from a mixed race background (Mexican, Italian, Polish, French and Spanish). I was born and raised  in Los Angeles. I attended graduate school in San Francisco for writing before moving to New York and pursuing a career in health care. My interests include writing, literature, horticulture, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, nutrition, travel (when not traveling, wathching YouTube travel videos) and my cat Diego, named after Diego Armando Maradona.

Through compassionate inquiry, honoring where a patient comes from, and focusing on an individual’s specific needs and concerns, I facilitate the patient’s arrival to a place where they may reach their full potential and accomplish the goals they deem necessary to lead their best possible life.
