My background provided me with unique opportunities of learning and expanding my appreciation of different beliefs and cultures. I was born and raised in northern California and spent the other half of my childhood living in Kenya. Returning to the United States at age 17, I finished high school and started college. During that time I was able to volunteer at my grandfather’s chiropractic office. After a couple of weeks observing patient care, I knew that I had found what I was looking for.
I received my undergraduate degree in Biology from Portland State University and my doctorate in chiropractic from Life West Chiropractic College.
I have combined a few different techniques to provide the best adjustment. The most common techniques I use are Gonstead, Receptor-Tonus (Nimmo) and Diversified. Having had experience working in the construction trades, I have a unique perspective as to the physical challenges experienced. I have spent the past 34 years living in the Northwest and I love being outdoors, hiking, and camping.
As a chiropractor, I am dedicated to listening to and working with patients by increasing function, reducing pain, and helping them improve their personal vitality to live life to the fullest.
