Jenna earned a BA in Psychology & Women's Studies from Wayne State University and a Master of Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine from the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine. She is Nationally Board Certified by the NCBAHM (NCCAOM) and is also a licensed acupuncturist (UT). She was initially certified in Energy Medicine through Reiki and the Healing the Light Body School (Four Winds Society) and also studied with Rainbow Jaguar Institute, the Heart of the Healer and a diverse variety of teachers including master healers (Paqos) from the Q’ero people. In August 2010, Jenna traveled to Peru and spent a month immersed one-on-one with Q’ero Paqos and teachings in the area around Cuzco, the Sacred Valley and Q’olloriti. She’s continued her studies with Q’ero elder Don Mariano Quispe Flores. Since then her work has been continuously evolving through experiences, teachings and travel to sacred places in the USA, Mexico and Brazil.

Over the years she’s worked with diverse clients in private practice, community acupuncture clinics, medical offices, home visits, birthing centers, spas and addiction recovery centers. She’s been honored to work with clients on healing and recovery from a wide range of concerns including chronic illness, anxiety, grief and  trauma, ancestral and lineage work, women's menstrual and reproductive health, menopause, fertility, obstetrics, labor initiation and birthing support, post-partum care, injuries, post-surgical, wellness, colds and flu, shingles and adjunct treatment for serious conditions. At the end of 2021, she shifted away from working clinically as an acupuncturist and shifted to working with people in online sessions.

Jyotisha Vidya (Vedic Astrology) has been a long-time interest, and in 2022 Jenna began deepening in her studies through a lunar nakshatra-based system that views the life through cycles of time called dashas. Her focus is medical jyotish and how imprints and karma from past lives impact and shape our current incarnation and experiences.

Additional influences include: Classical Chinese Medicine, integrating stones and essential oils with treatments, Western and Chinese Herbalism, Craniosacral Therapy, sound & vibration, food as medicine, Maya Spiritual Healing & Maya Abdominal Therapy from the lineage of Don Elijio Panti and Miss Hortense Robinson through Rosita Arvigo. She participates in ongoing continuing education each year to continue learning and evolving.
