About Me

Originally from Phoenix, Arizona, I attended Arizona State University for my bachelor's degree in kinesiology. I received my master's degree and training at A.T. Still University. I discovered a passion for otolaryngology (ENT) and pursued a postgraduate fellowship at Mayo Clinic Arizona in otolaryngology-head and neck surgery. After completing this program, my husband and I made our way to the Pacific Northwest. We truly love the area and enjoy discovering new restaurants and hidden hiking areas.

About my practice

The Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery Department at Kaiser Permanente is committed to supporting our patients. I am the first physician assistant hired within my department and take pride in creating a strong name for my profession. My personal goal is for each patient to leave their appointment feeling informed and understanding the diagnosis and treatment plan we discuss.

How I thrive

I enjoy spending time outdoors with my family and friends. My greatest passion is traveling. I was raised in an Air Force family and we travelled through much of my childhood. My other hobbies include hiking, camping, yoga and reading.
