She is a graduate of Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in Chicago, where she earned a Master of Science in Traditional Oriental Medicine in 2010.
As an adjunct to her internship at Pacific College, Mary gained experience as a volunteer practitioner at the Veteran's Alternative Healthcare Project in Chicago.
