Personal Life

Carrie and her husband, Dan, live just outside of Delaware in Radnor where they live with their dogs, cats and horses.  Carrie raises and trains her beloved Morgan horses

After completing undergraduate education at Miami University and graduate education at Franklin University, Carrie graduated from the American Institute of Alternative Medicine’s three year master level acupuncture program, with honors.  She is board certified the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and licensed by the Ohio State Medical Board.

In 2008, Ohio legislators unanimously passed a new practice law to allow acupuncturists direct access to patients without requiring a doctor's referral.  This was a culmination of two years of intense work by Carrie as Legislative Chair for the Ohio Association of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.

Carrie first began learning about the use of complimentary modalities in the treatment of animals.  She completed over 2,000 hours of training in massage, acupressure, energy work and muscle rehabilitation for animals and humans prior to attending acupuncture school.
