My inspiration to be in the medical field began at an early age. My uncle was a pediatrician. He was responsible for my well being, since I was born very sick and struggled with health in the early part of my life.

Growing up in India, I was also immersed in the culture of Ayurveda, and spirituality.

In 2007, I completed undergraduate in Molecular and Cellular Biology on a pre-medicine track from the University of California, Santa Barbara. Then, took my first step in post-graduate education and became certified as an Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor (AWC) from Kerala Ayurveda Academy in Fremont, Calif.

Following AWC certification, I completed my study of Naturopathic Medicine at Bastyr University. In pursuit of experiencing true holistic medicine I also studied and got certification in mindfulness meditation, shamanism, and Qigong.

Ultimately, I returned to my roots. Ayurveda truly provides the widest range of tools to tend to physical, mental, emotional and spiritual care of individuals. I apply Ayurveda as primary-care medicine, a counseling therapy, and as a spiritual foundation in my practice.
