About me
Aloha! I am a Navy Brat, so I have had the pleasure of living in multiple states and countries. From that early exposure, I developed a love of traveling and learning about different cultures. That is why Atlanta is a perfect city for me - I get to interact with people from all over the world every day. As a pediatrician, I think this helps me to keep an open outlook on my patients' experiences and families to develop great relationships. I chose to practice pediatrics because I love getting to know our members and their families, and I like helping families navigate their health and the health care system. I also like to stay active in the community by volunteering with organizations like March of Dimes and Girls on the Run.
About my practice
I am a member of our Kaiser Permanente Pediatrics Department and I also have the privilege of working with families once a month at the DeKalb County Refugee Center. I enjoy taking care of children from birth through adolescence. I have a special interest in sports medicine, early childhood literacy/education, asthma/allergy care and obesity prevention/management. I consider myself an advocate for children and have done some work on the Legislative Committee of the Georgia Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics. As your child's pediatrician, I want to work with you to keep your child healthy and to spot any concerns well before they become serious. I encourage you and your child to ask me lots of questions! Se habla español!
How I thrive
I have been told that I am an optimist and I take this as a compliment! I think that there is almost always an opportunity to find good in one's life. I am most happy when I get to feel the sun on my skin. I started running outside about three years ago, and it has really helped me stay healthy, both physically and mentally. As far as hobbies, I love traveling, reading, trying new restaurants, listening to good music and dancing (poorly).

The measures may include, but are not limited to, HEDIS/CAHPS performance, member/patient complaints, patient safety scores, hospital quality measures, and geographic need. Members enrolled in KFHP Marketplace plans have access to all professional, institutional and ancillary health care providers who participate in KFHP plans' contracted provider network, in accordance with the terms of the members' KFHP plan of coverage. All Kaiser Permanente Medical Group physicians and network physicians are subject to the same quality review processes and certifications.
