I am a certified Ayurvedic Practitioner and come from a line of Ayurvedic doctors and Western physicians. I have been passionate about alternative medicine and natural health since 2005. I worked as a Silicon Valley engineer for many years and understand first-hand the self-care mistakes that can be made in a corporate environment and the importance of being mindful about diet, lifestyle, environment, and stress for physical, emotional, and mental health.
During those days, I passionately spent my non-work hours researching herbs, meditation, martial arts, supplements, biohacks, and esoteric alternative health therapies. It was only much later that I realized that this motivation came from stress, a weak constitution, and fear of early death. My father passed away when I was young, so I was subconsciously dreading each year as I approached his age at death.
Interests: Daoist and Vedic philosophy, playing music, Tuvan throat singing, astronomy, astrology, fitness, running, quantum biology, stories, dance, mythology.
