Bio:

Rebecca was born and raised in Silicon Valley, California. She earned her undergraduate degree with a double major in Politics and Modern Literature from The University of California at Santa Cruz. She studied in Lyon, France her junior year at the IEP, focusing on 20th Century French poetry. She attended the New York University Summer Publishing Institute in 2001.

Reoccurring health issues and an eventual Lupus diagnosis prevented her from finding happiness in the publishing industry. She sought acupuncture to minimize the symptoms, and over time with frequent treatments and a steady course of herbal supplements she was asymptomatic. She realized that her calling was to be of service to others in their quest for health.

In 2010 she received her Master’s Degree from The American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. She is fully licensed in the state of Minnesota, and holds certification from the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.

After earning her Master’s she interned with renown Taiwanese acupuncturist YenWei Choong. She earned her Functional Medicine certification in May 2020.
