Unlike many of my peers, I came up through a genuinely science-forward clinical education. After a B.S. in both biology and psychology, I earned my doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine at the University of Bridgeport, then became one of the first Naturopathic Doctors licensed in California.
As part of Bridgeport's inaugural College of Naturopathic Medicine class, I trained directly alongside Yale physicians and public health leaders, with clinical rotations at Griffin Hospital and Yale's integrative medical center, and epidemiology under Dr. David Katz.
My clinical grounding runs deep: a primary care residency at the Weight Loss & Natural Medicine Clinic in Cheshire, Connecticut, treating thyroid disorders, menstrual irregularities, perimenopause, PCOS, autoimmune disease, food allergies and more. The root-cause instinct started there.
