About Me

Hello, and welcome to my Web page. Let me introduce myself! I am a pediatrician. I joined Kaiser Permanente in 2008 and have been proud and happy to be part of this organization. I look forward to meeting your family and to the opportunity to be a part of your children’s growth and care.

Biography

I was born in Quebec, Canada, and lived there until age six, when I was transplanted to Southern California. I grew up everywhere, from the San Fernando Valley to Los Angeles. I graduated from Villa Park High School here in Orange County and split my undergraduate years between UCLA and UC Irvine. I completed medical school in Albany, New York, and enjoyed it greatly. I returned to Southern California to do my pediatric residency at L.A. County USC Hospital and joined Kaiser Permanente after I graduated. My husband and I are proud parents of a very talkative girl and a boisterous boy! We both believe the greatest gift is our kids, and we love being parents.

About my practice

I am one of two pediatricians at the Kaiser Permanente Yorba Linda Medical Offices. My philosophy for taking care of your family is open access, communication, and an environment of learning from both sides. Our members teach me something new each day. I hope to be a resource of information to help guide your journey as parents. I love children, and I hope your children will thoroughly enjoy their doctor visits and be excited to come back!

How I thrive

I stay balanced by remembering that taking care of myself lets me be a better parent, wife, and physician. I enjoy photography, cooking, and spending time outdoors with our children and Golden Retriever. I hope to travel more as the kids get older to teach them the wonderful diversity and complexity of other cultures.
