About me
Wife, mom, aunt, daughter, and friend are terms used to described me in my personal life. I enjoy serving in these roles and especially enjoy spending time with family. I come from a caring family, with parents who are always helping others in some capacity. This is what ultimately led me to medicine. I have lived in both large cities and small suburbs and enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures. I hope that these experiences allow me to better communicate with and understand individuals from various backgrounds.
In addition to traveling, I enjoy historic architecture and photography. I consider myself a life-long learner and strive to continuously learn more about various topics.
About my practice
Ten years into my first career in business, I decided to return to school to begin the process of becoming a nurse practitioner. In hindsight, it was a good decision.
I am trained in adult medicine, gerontology, and primary care and I am a member of the Kaiser Permanente Adult Medicine Department. I enjoy connecting with our members and believe in a wholistic approach to care. I have had the pleasure of experiencing Kaiser Permanente health care from three different perspectives. First, as a member/patient, then as a registered nurse, and now as a nurse practitioner. I am proud to say that I see the value of our services in each of these experiences and I know that they aid in providing the best clinical services.
How I thrive
A wise person once said, "Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better." I think this is an accurate description of how I thrive. I endeavor to learn more and to constantly improve both professionally and personally. Like many others I have had to learn the importance of self-care as you care for others. I believe thriving is living your best life, and caring for yourself while caring for others.
