About me

I was born in Dallas, spent my childhood in Memphis, lived in Las Vegas during my teen years, and moved to St. Louis to pursue undergraduate degrees in biology and psychology at Washington University. For my medical degree I went to the University of Nevada School of Medicine and stayed on to do an internal medicine internship. Following that I went to Oregon Health & Science University for a dermatology residency and a pediatric dermatology fellowship. I’m now board certified in dermatology. During residency I met my significant other, who’s from Hawaii, and we moved to Oahu after I completed my training. We’ve loved living and working here ever since.

About my practice

When I was young, a biking accident got me interested in medicine and the possibility of a career as a doctor. During medical school the many possibilities in dermatology caught my attention. A dermatologist can practice as a generalist who sees patients with a wide range of skin conditions or as a specialist who focuses on one aspect of the practice, such as skin cancer. I’m particularly interested in infantile blood tumors, capillary malformations, eczema, psoriasis, and skin malignancies.

I’ve given presentations in several states around the country on skin diseases such as dermatitis in pregnancy, herpes, and skin discoloration, as well as on conditions related to kidney damage and fluid buildup in pregnancy. Also, my research articles on topics such as skin and aging, skin tumors, effects of fluoroscopic procedures, fibroids, and some rare conditions have been published in a number of medical journals.

To keep up with current medical research, I attend national conferences, read dermatology journals, participate in journal clubs, attend continuing medical education programs, and access the latest information put out by my professional organizations – the American Academy of Dermatology and the Society for Pediatric Dermatology.

When I worked with Kaiser Permanente in Portland, Oregon, I experienced a very supportive environment and a wonderful patient population. I wanted to continue with this highly regarded organization when I moved to Oahu, and I was fortunate to have the opportunity to join Hawaii Permanente Medical Group.

My goal is to provide skin disease patients with the best possible care. I also enjoy talking to my patients and learning about their lives—their families, their interests, their occupations, what brought them to Hawaii, if not originally from here.

How I thrive

Being with my family is my favorite pastime. To stay healthy and fit, I hike, run, bicycle, go open-water swimming, and dabble in photography. I also find it fulfilling to take part in skin cancer awareness workshops and volunteer dermatology clinics in my community.

Accommodations for Individuals with Disabilities

Kaiser Permanente is committed to providing accessible facilities, services, and programs for all members, visitors and individuals with disabilities. In compliance with federal and state laws that prohibit discrimination based on disability, Kaiser Permanente provides:

  1. accessible exam rooms and medical equipment;
  2. free auxiliary aids and services to ensure effective communication with individuals with hearing, vision, cognitive, and/or communication-related disabilities, including qualified sign language interpreter services and informational materials in alternative formats (large print, audio tape/CDs, accessible PDFs or Microsoft Word documents, electronic texts/disks/CD-ROMS, and Braille); and
  3. access to service animals, except where the animal poses a significant health or safety risk(s) to others.

For more information about access to a specific facility or provider, or if you believe that Kaiser Permanente has failed to provide appropriate access or services or otherwise discriminated on the basis of a disability, please contact Member Services toll-free 1-800-966-5955 or TTY 711, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. or Saturday, 8 a.m. – noon. You may also contact or file a grievance with the Kaiser Permanente Civil Rights Coordinator in person, by mail, fax or email at: 711 Kapiolani Blvd, Honolulu, Hawaii 96813, civil-rights-coordinator@kp.org, or toll-free 1-800-966-5955, TTY 711.

The availability and use of the Kaiser Permanente grievance procedure does not prevent a person from filing a complaint of discrimination on the basis of disability with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office for Civil Rights or the Hawaii Civil Rights Commission.

Kaiser Permanente uses the same quality, member experience, or cost-related measures to select practitioners and facilities in Marketplace Silver-tier plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business and uses the same geographic distribution consideration to select hospitals in Marketplace plans as it does for all other Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) products and lines of business. 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.

A narrow network is defined as a tailored, tiered or high-performance network that has 80 percent or less overlap with a health plan’s broadest network offered to a member in any type of plan offered by that health plan. Kaiser Permanente does not have a narrow network with respect to its Marketplace plans. Members enrolled in Kaiser Foundation Health Plan (KFHP) Marketplace plans have access to the same provider networks as members enrolled in all other KFHP plans.

Information about a practitioner is provided to us by the practitioner or is obtained as part of the credentialing process.
