About me
I was born and raised in Portland, Oregon, and first came to Washington -- where I now live with my wife and 2 daughters -- for school. I graduated from Pacific University and completed my residency at American Lake Veterans Administration Medical Center. I am certified by the American Academy of Optometry. Facing new clinical challenges and helping others to improve their health keeps me motivated to provide the highest-quality care every day. I am the local operations chief for Seattle area clinics, and I mentor young doctors as part of the Optometric Physicians of Washington. Joining a team of forward-thinking doctors at Washington Permanente Medical Group has helped me grow as a clinician and as a leader.
About my practice
Through active listening and education, I strive to give patients an understanding of their vision health while addressing their individual questions and concerns. I enjoy getting to know patients on a personal level and caring for patients throughout their lives. My specialties include contact lenses, diabetic eye disease, chronic eye conditions, emergent eye conditions, dry eye disease, cornea transplants, and low vision.
How I thrive
In my free time, I enjoy photography, music, and traveling whenever possible. (My favorite destinations are Hawaii and Tahiti.) I stay healthy and happy by running, playing sports, coaching, and volunteering for my community. Most of all, I love spending time with my family.

How we choose our network providers and hospitals
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.
