About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Creating a successful practice as an acupuncturist

ABOUT ME

I'm just out for a bit of adventure and to meet some good people along the way. I've been really focused on work and study for about 5 years now, so i'm ready to get back out into the world.

I used to work in music, putting on shows, tours etc. Then encountered chinese medicine and realised that was my professional path. I've spent the last couple of years trying to get to grips with Brazilian jiu jitsu which has been an awesome experience even if i do spend most training sessions getting my ass handed to me.

If i get to spend a nice mix of time out in nature and in the city then i'm a happy man. My kind of day is a hike in the wilderness, then returning to civilisation for an evening of moderate debauchery

PHILOSOPHY

We're all in it together
