Writing + Speaking

I write and speak about the experiences that change our relationship with our bodies, our health, and our communities. Drawing from East Asian medicine, clinical practice, the arts, healthcare leadership, and lived experience, I explore women’s health, aging, and life’s transitions through the many ways we make sense of being human: the body, creativity, culture, and connection.
