Business Manager
– Cassie

Cassie is William’s partner in life and business. They met in Chicago while he completed his Master’s of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and he quickly proved to her the efficacy of acupuncture. With her background in business and his as a practitioner, they opened Affinity Acupuncture shortly after marrying and moving to Nashville. Cassie had to reduce her hours in the office when their twins were born, but some of our first clients still remember Cassie and the twins helping out back in the early days. She still comes to the office on occasion (sometimes still with the twins), but primarily works from home.
