My experience as an intern at 3M consisted of carrying out laboratory research to ensure the safety and durability of the large-scale manufacturing medicine filter, Zeta Plus™. This experience advanced my ability to collaborate, think ahead, apply what I have learned in Chemistry and Mathematics, and increase my expertise in computer software. My current position in Community Relations at Travelers entails for me to communicate with and manage volunteer opportunities for over 3,000 employees, in addition to connecting Travelers with non-profit partners, event planning, and serving as a liaison in Saint Paul for my remote manager and team in Hartford, Connecticut.

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medical treatment for multiple issues, and is characterized by needles being strategically inserted into pressure points on the body to relieve symptoms. This is believed to reset you qi or life force within your body. This practice is carried out by acupuncturists all over the world. In western medicine, while we don’t know the exact mechanism of action, it is thought to increase blood flow and raise natural painkiller levels in the body. This rise in natural painkillers and increased blood flow are the major benefits of acupuncture. The risks are very few, there is a very limited chance of organ damage, infection, or soreness after a treatment (Mayo Clinic 2012).
Dr. Tieraona Low Dog, Fellowship Director, Arizona Center For Integrative Medicine explains how we want to expose clinicians to a broader way of seeing the patient a deeper understanding of healing and a larger toolbox from which to choose for therapies. She talks about how if patients were treated with different procedures such as acupuncture or holistic healing, we as consumers would not have to pay out so much on treatment. Procedures such as these would actually benefit us because we would not need to see doctors nearly as much as we do now, because we would not be “treating” the diseases with chemicals (pharmaceutical drugs) which have many side effects. Also, the pharmaceutical companies and insurance companies would never let this happen because then they would be out of money because people would not have to see their doctors nearly as much in hence means that these “cattle runners” would not be making the money they are.
West Philly Community Acupuncture (WPCA) was opened on February 25th, 2014 as a member of the People’s Organization of Community Acupuncture (POCA) located at 4636 Woodland Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19143. They provide community style acupuncture, which is defined as taking place in a setting where several patients are treated at the same time, “by financially sustainable and accountable means”, and being easily accessible with consistent hours and affordable treatments with few barriers to care (“POCA”, 2016). They are open Tuesday through Thursday from 3pm-7pm, Saturday from 10am-2pm, and Sunday from 1pm-5pm. At WPCA, they have an atypical pricing method. Rather than billing through insurance, they ask their clients to pay on a sliding scale, ranging between 15-35 dollars at the client’s discretion. The client pays prior to their treatment, yet, how much or how little they pay does not dictate the quality of the treatment, number of acupuncture points used, or length of visit. WPCA does not ever ask for proof of income or employment. As such, receiving two treatments in one week could range from $30-$60 dollars, depending on what the client chooses to pay. They maintain that they are able to keep prices low (about the price of an insurance co-pay) because by having community treatments with multiple people occupying a single room, they are able to treat more people at one time. With low prices, the WPCA is able to fulfill their personal mission as well as the mission of the

We will explore the financial health of the institution through an in depth analysis of their financial statements and ultimately determine the steps needed to improve their operations.

In acupuncture there is no such thing as “prescription”. You are given a treatment by having an acupuncturist place needles in certain meridian points over your entire body. It is believed that there are twelve principle meridians within the body, containing almost 400 acupuncture points (Acupuncture Becoming More Mainstream In Western Medicine). Meridians are energy pathways in which the Chinese believe the most Qi is located. Qi maintains the dynamic balance of yin and yang. Yin represents cool and cold energies. Yang,
