Director of Admissions
April grew up in Hawaii and no matter where she lives ~ it is with aloha spirit and an island style. She values lifelong learning and enjoys working with students of all ages.
April holds an MS in Psychology and likes to find the similarities and commonalities between people. While respecting and honoring our unique individuality, she believes we can connect and work together towards common goals. She believes that when people work from the heart and the mind — with good intentions — anything is possible.
In 2006, April moved to Tucson, Arizona where she worked with pioneers and leaders in Integrative Medicine for 10 years. Initially, she worked with Fellows and later transitioned to working with medical students and residents.
April has worked with the Fellowship at AIHM since 2016. Her primary focus is on Recruitment & Admissions which allows her to meet new people from all around the world. She connects with them through phone calls, emails, and web-based meetings.
April currently lives in Chandler, Arizona with her husband, Dave. She enjoys listening to music, dancing, walking in nature, traveling, and drinking strong coffee.
