My first encounter with medicine was bee stinger, which was about thirty years ago. I frequently went to mountains with strong curiosity about herbs. I learned direct moxibustion at the Korean Authentic AcuMoxa Academy about ten years ago. which Dr Namsu Kim (Gudang) established. I completed Master's program at the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine in August 2016, and I am taking Doctoral degree program at the same college. I treat patients with acupuncture and direct moxibustion at Northwest Acupuncture Center.
