During my upbringing and for most of my young adult life, everything has revolved around the sport of basketball. From playing in college to playing professionally overseas in Germany, I continuously worked closely with team doctors, physical therapists, and strength coaches who focused intently on nutrition and wellness above all else. However, after a season-ending injury, I started to look at the world of nutrition through a new, more intentional lens. 

While I went through my recovery process in Germany, I worked with doctors who focused on a holistic body approach and I was inadvertently introduced to functional medicine. I healed quickly and fell in love with the ideologies behind this new way of thinking, and developed an energetic passion for the science behind this new approach to medicine.

Flash forward to present day, and it is an absolute pleasure to represent Ortho Molecular Products on a daily basis. Our commitment is to transform the practice of medicine by partnering with physicians and I can already see how this community can help us all grow together and learn from each other! 

I understand that many clinicians within functional medicine may not have access to resources that can enhance their practices, so the goal is to change that by leaning on one another and sharing best practices.

The Orange County community directory will serve to bring doctors together, but will also aid patients in finding the necessary help they need in order to truly heal from the inside out.

I look forward to seeing how this community can change medicine within Southern California
