I am a Traditional Chinese Medicine Student Practitioner, an Acupuncturist, a Yoni Practitioner, and a Body Work Practitioner. My interest in holistic medicine came to me naturally as I grew up in West Africa where we practice traditional medicine; herbs for healing malaria, injuries, and everything you can think of! With this environment, I came to appreciate the power of plants.

I completed two years of nursing assistant training in Sierra Leone but because of the war everything was shut down. I came to Canada as a refugee in 1998 and from that time, I have worked a variety of jobs, from a medical lab technician to a job at MDS Pharma Services.

After my daughter was born, I trained as an acupuncturist and completed the Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner. The curiosity and love for this practice made me want to continue my studies with the advanced program.

I love to help. I love people, and I like to see people happy and to feel their best.
