Chiropractor

Summary
I am a Palmer College of Chiropractic graduate as of March 2024. I have passed all National Chiropractic Boards and am currently licensed to practice in the state of California. With a background in dance, I have a passion for human movement, kinetics, and overall fitness. It has led me to where I am today, studying spinal alignment, mobility, and functional movement to enhance one’s performance quality. As a devoted chiropractor with hands-on clinical experience, I am ardent about helping patients achieve their health goals through evidence-based chiropractic care. I thrive in a collaborative environment where I can contribute my skills, build lasting patient relationships, and be part of a team committed to providing exceptional care.
