About me
I was born in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and grew up in Phoenix, Arizona. I received all of my advanced degrees from the University of Arizona—a Bachelor of Science, a Bachelor of Health Science, a Master of Public Health, and even my medical degree. For my residency in obstetrics-gynecology I went to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, where I specialized in maternal and child health and served as chief resident. I was honored to receive the Outstanding Chief Resident and the Carole Jordan Harris MD awards.
During my residency I trained at Kaiser Permanente in Hawaii and decided that this was where I wanted to settle down. My husband, who was my high school sweetheart, has been my rock and support throughout my education and my life. We’re both beyond happy with our decision to come here. We love the people, the culture of ohana, and the natural beauty.
About my practice
I was the first person in my family to attend college, and becoming a physician seemed to be a great way to give back to my community and make a positive difference in the world.
Raised by a single mother, I’ve always admired women who sacrifice so much to bring children into this world and raise them to be responsible, contributing adults. In my experience there’s no population more deserving of or more grateful for support than pregnant mothers. I’m honored to be in a position to provide this to them and their growing babies.
My professional interests include preventive care, cervical cancer screening, public health, and medical education.
I’ve given presentations on a program called Enhancing Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) with the goal of improving healing after caesarean delivery. I’ve also done research and volunteer work on cervical cancer screening and treatment programs.
To keep up with current research, I study the findings and recommendations published by my professional organization, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
How I thrive
Outdoor activities on this beautiful island help me to stay fit: I enjoy hiking, standup paddleboarding, snorkeling, practicing yoga, cooking, and spending time with my husband and our two dogs, who bring us great happiness. My involvement with Planned Parenthood and a homeless center on the Mainland helped me to feel connected to my community, and I hope to recreate that in Hawaii.

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