Jen comes from a family of medical doctors, growing up immersed in the medical world, which fostered her early appreciation for health and healing. After spending years working in the corporate world, she found acupuncture as a way to manage her own health issues, ultimately leading her to pursue a career in holistic medicine. She approaches patient care with compassion and personalized attention, drawing on over 10 years of experience as a therapeutic yoga teacher. Originally from Chicago and deeply connected to the mind-body healing power of acupuncture, Jen creates a sanctuary for healing in her practice. She empowers patients to engage actively in their health journey, offering a safe, relaxed, and welcoming atmosphere focused on addressing underlying factors to achieve harmony in body, mind, and spirit.
Outside the clinic, Jen enjoys being in nature, exploring Austin, practicing yoga, experimenting with healthy recipes, and spending quality time with friends and family.
