I am interested in providing support and creative energy for an organization that promotes a style of traditional medicine that I am very passionate about.  I appreciate the mission of HDHS and all the work that has been accomplished thus far.  I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of keeping that momentum going while looking into the future for new ways to expand the mission in an enthusiastic, collaborative and collegial manner.
