Description:

I majored in Anthropology, Humanities and International Studies, primarily focusing on Chinese studies, Indigenous peoples and medical anthropology. I have conducted extensive field research at an international TCM hospital in China and throughout various parts of the globe. Because of this, I am in the process of formulating new anthropological theory about health and healing, helping make a TCM clinic in Algeria a reality and starting my International foundation for the collection, cross-cultural translation and applications of traditional medicine worldwide for the benefit of all.

I have studied western, Tibetan, Sioux, various Native American forms of healing and Traditional Chinese Medicine (both in the US and in Chia),.

I counsel many nations on integrative health policies and have been working with the WHO through various initiatives as a volunteer and researcher.

I have also written grants and am considered a China expert.

My main mission is to make the WHO 1978 ALMA ATA a reality through the integration of medicines. Through this action, we heal not only bodies and spirits, but also bridge the cultural divides, provide sustainable solutions and restore our balance with the environment and each other--ONENESS REALIZED.
