When her parents fell ill to sickness, her work as an Internal Medicine physician transitioned to a palliative care role. She passed her palliative care and hospice medicine boards in 2012 and became Elmhurst hospital's medical director in palliative care in 2015.
During this transition, she returned to graduate school and is currently studying for post -graduate degrees in acupuncture and oriental medicine, bioethics and theological studies at National University of Health Sciences and Trinity International University.
