About me
I was born in Connecticut into a military family. My father’s career as a U.S. Navy submarine commander took us to faraway bases, including Hawaii, which was always my favorite place to be. My father has been an inspiration to me throughout my life, modeling hard work, integrity, and gratitude for our many blessings. I graduated from Punahou School and then got my undergraduate degree from the University of Hawaii. I then moved to Washington, D.C. to attend George Washington University, where I received my master’s degree in health sciences and my physician assistant certification. My husband and I always wanted to move back to Hawaii, and we were overjoyed when the opportunity to do that came our way.
About my practice
I’ve always had an interest in health care professions. I like the idea of being in a position to help people in a meaningful way while also feeling challenged by my work. I particularly enjoy the variety of cases and situations that I encounter in family medicine. To stay up-to-date in medicine, I read professional journals, participate in continuing medical education programs, and take every opportunity to interact with my colleagues, which is always enlightening. I’m also a member of the American Academy of Physician Assistants, which provides numerous opportunities for personal and professional growth. I wanted to work at the Hawaii Permanente Medical Group because it’s the largest medical group on Oahu and because it is well-regarded both in the local community and nationally. I’m able to collaborate with experts in virtually every medical specialty, and we’re all working together for the good of our patients. It’s a pleasure to experience that camaraderie and support among physicians and other providers. I strive to treat every patient with sensitivity and respect. Listening closely to them allows me to better understand their concerns and to address their needs in the most efficient and professional way possible. It makes me happy to see patients following through with health care goals that we’ve set together and to see the improvement in their health status.
How I thrive
Spending time with my family helps to keep me balanced and focused on the most important things in life. Exercising every day, whether hiking or swimming, helps keep me physically healthy, and traveling helps to keep me mentally stimulated.

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:
- accessible exam rooms and medical equipment;
- 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
- 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.
